i tried to read this book like 2 years ago, but dnf'ed after like 150 pages or so. i picked it back up on audio book and finished it in a day. loved the book, but some parts felt out of pocket. it also ended unresolved for all the characters, as the many protagonist's goals they all had since the middle of the book were left unfinished. overall, it was a great book and i'm gonna re-read the first book now that i'm older and can understand the writing's vocabulary a lot better.
