I had the HARDEST time getting into this book. I’ve been working through this over a few weeks. I went from physical book, to ebook, to finally audio to just finish it. I don’t know if it was just my mood, but this novel felt so slow. The writing was well done, the plot just took forever to get going. Then it felt like at the end it rushed so much it was hard to keep up. Definitely had some pacing issues. The story was interesting once it finally got going.
I really wanted to like this book, and I often found the themes and characters interesting, but something about the writing style and plot just didn’t click with me
