One of my reading goals this year is to read more of my physical TBR, this was the first book I chose. 
And unfortunately I definitely had an extremely difficult time reading this and at times I found it so boring that I had force myself to read it. Towards the middle of the book there were areas that were more interesting however I felt like they quickly turned boring again
