Put aside on page 32. So far we've had 9 different POVs in 10 chapters. Combined with some racist language (for example: "...a French explorer of darkest Africa, who had disguised himself as a native in order to enter the mysterious continent (page 25)." I mean, seriously??), I'm just not interested in finishing this at this time.

Still can't wait to read this book, but having trouble picking it up this month.

I was really looking forward to this book but the beginning just didn't work for me.

I just couldn't get into this book at this time.

Paused after Chapter 2 (page 21).

6 chapters in, unable to finish at this time. Enjoyed the writing style & will probably return to.

Currently paused on page 84. Will pick up for a read-a-long later this year.

Paused on page 121. Will return to, but reading about the end of the world (even if it's fictional) isn't a good subject for me right now, especially with my state currently experiencing extreme environmental events.

DNF'd for graphic medical descriptions.
