from the introduction of the love interest onwards i felt a gradual decline in my enjoyment of the book as i am not a fan of how the romance is written at all. i really liked the beginning a lot but the the main character is very hard to like in my opinion, which gets worse and worse as the story progresses.

have to admit when I first started reading this book I was very intimidated. The version that I started reading was over 1,000 pages long and is the longest book I’ve ever read. At the beginning, I wasn’t a fan of the writing, mostly due to it, taking so long to get to the main point of the book. However, as I started finishing the book, I started to understand why there was so much world building at the beginning, in order to come to the final conclusion of the story. Overall, I really enjoyed it and glad that I stepped outside of my comfort zone with this book.

One of the best books I’ve ever read and got me interested in fiction again. Great character development and word building. Bonus if you’ve read “It” before.
