Was a good book but it didn’t make me go wow. I’d recommend it to people, but it wouldn’t ever be my first choice I don’t think I’ll rave about it to people

I understand what the author was trying to accomplish, however this book didn't hit the mark. The story is very compelling and I think that another author would've been able to bring it to life. This is not a bad book but it's not exceptional either.
