*I received this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review*


I'm sad to say that I didn't enjoy this book as much as I had expected to.
 The book felt really slow to start and I had a hard time connecting with the main character, and felt a general lack of depth and personality. 
 The other thing I couldn't get past was the writing style. While I do understand the reason behind the language style used, I found it really hard to focus on the plot and was constantly rereading parts in order to translate it into standard English in my head, which was a slow and frustrating process.
 I'm sure this writing style would appeal to some, but for me it just didn't work.

With a premise that drew me in, I was really disappointed that I ended up not liking this book.
 One of my biggest issues are the multiple subplots, many of which don't really seem to have a point or go anywhere.
 The first few chapters were interesting, but after that I just felt like there were too many characters and none of them were developed well enough to make them interesting.
 Personally, I just didn't enjoy this book, and would have preferred it if it had soley focused on the Doctor and his Daughter.

I've seen so many positive reviews for this book, but for me personally it just didn't hit the mark.
 I felt as if there was no real plot direction, and the characters weren't strong enough or developed enough for a character driven narrative.
 I found it to be the kind of book that you get to the end of and aren't really sure what it was about.
 I couldn't get super invested in the story and that just left it feeling a little underwhelming. 
 It was a quick read, though, and did have some interesting moments, so I'd say you should give it a shot as so many people seem to have liked it a whole lot more than I did.
