I think the only reason I could cope with how slow it was was because I saw somewhere that it was inspired by Lord of the Rings. And if you've read those books you know just how slow they are.
I enjoyed it and I'm definitely interested in seeing what's going to happen in this series.
But I really hope that pace picks up and the story really gets going.

You can really see how Aveyard's writing has become so much more mature since RQ. I loved all the characters and their stories linked really well together.
I especially loved Erida, mainly because she reminds me of my favourite historical women (I'm a history major, forgive me). She's such a well written morally gray/black/idek character and I'm so so excited to see how her story progresses and all the other ones as well.
