adventurous mysterious medium-paced

Some wild punctuation choices. I didn’t love it, but I could see it as a movie. It reads like a Doctor Who episode.

This was just wrong place, wrong time for me to be reading this! I’ve been in such a bad reading slump lately and then I was super busy so I couldn’t focus on reading at all. The writing was good and I liked the story and the characters, so I’d like to reread this and give it another chance later because I think I will enjoy it a lot more.

I lost interest in the book, and was unable to finish it.

Fantastic book, but by the end some problems with the setup start to show. By creating a landscape where things happen without explanation or understanding, things eventually start feeling like they're happening just to keep the plot going.
