emilia_thereader's review against another edition

I could not get past the writing with this book. Everything felt all over the place with the plot and I did not really connect with any of the characters. It also put me in a reading slump and I tried to pick it up multiple times but I think I’ll maybe try this one later. Big maybe though. I had really high expectations due to the hype which also probably contributed to me struggling with this one.
