I gave it 2 stars because I’ve been trying to read this book since my boyfriend gave it to me and it’s simply BORING. I'm feeling disappointed, stressed and confused. Wtf is happening here? And to justify my boringness I'll use the fact that every time I opened this book I read a few pages and give up after some minutes. So I did what I do when I'm getting tedious about a book: I read the last two chapters and that was all. No end good enough. So that's it, for those who loved this huge mass of paper: you rock, I'd love to have your patience.

This was certainly a genre-bending ride, starting out almost like a thriller, swerving to portal fantasy, then mythology, and back again. I was reading on a kindle so I didn't even realize it was 650 pages. Of course I like all books with a library focus, though this was got right up to the edge of all books are very special and no book should ever be thrown away - which like no, sorry Elizabeth, but you are not a librarian.

Fun read and interesting fantasy but not the best plot or characters. Still enjoyed though.
