Felt extremely long. I kept thinking it was nearly over. I found it exceptionally bleak.

ginzura's review against another edition

started off promising, but I just was reading a lot of the same things, a literal regurgitation of things that have happened already. They walk around and just.. kept walking. The one character I had vague interest in was Agnes, but that’s beginning to fizzle out. I’ve lost my motivation to continue.
