I truly do not understand how people can be so excited about this book. The pacing is ridiculous, the characters are entirely flat, and the writing is not good. Do people just say they like this book because everyone else likes it?? I sometimes can understand why books that are poorly written but have a good story line are popular but this had neither???? Waste of my time but now at least my negative opinion is informed
