This was just...wow...

There was a part that bothered me so much but I kept reading because I just wanted to finish it: “You are a spiteful and stupid woman. She has a lot more than a little money and that’s not why they want her. She is also not human anymore, she’s one of us and from a lost bloodline,”
I read all of this in a monotonous tone because that was the vibe I was getting so when I got to: “I said. She made me mad and I had said too much.” I got mad myself because I wasn’t able to pick up that he was angry. I picked up on annoyance and boredom of the conversation but not angry. Usually I can tell what the character is felling but I really couldn’t with much of this book and that took away a lot of enjoyment for me.

The basic idea of the story is good but the writing/delivery was just bad. I finished the book because I want to keep my DNF list as short as possible but this was super close to being on there.

The story had potential, but it had the quality of a first draft, and it felt rushed. Pity, since I think I'd enjoy this series if it was written better.
