The premise is interesting and the setting / descriptive writing style are excellent. However, the pacing is just too slow for me at the moment, especially in such a long book. I should revisit this down the road when I’m feeling up to a slower paced read!

I couldn’t handle the constant inane dialogue, the story was not super descriptive and mostly just full of banter between characters. I couldn’t get into it at all.
