3.0

This book started out strong, but it had so many unnecessary details. By the middle I just wanted it to end. I did enjoy the setting and a different trope than usual. I felt as though the author herself was sort of over it by 3/4 of the way in the book. It was probably 100 pages longer than necessary. I found myself skipping a few pages to just get to the point.
