okay i think this book had so much potential to be great but just fell a little short when it came to the characters. i didn’t feel a connection to them and found that i couldn’t really understand some of their motivations. i felt like some of the cartographers sections a little droning and found myself just wanting to get back to the nell chapters. i was really sucked in to the plot for about 2/3 of the book and then then last 1/3 i kind of lost interest. not something i would necessarily go out of my way to recommend but not something i regret reading.
