This has been on my TBR for a long ass time. I'm slowly trying to go through that horrible list to bring it down.. but then I somehow scroll through unknown books and I add even more to my pile. It's a never-ending nightmare that I can't wait to dive into. I need ALL the books.
Mirage was an okay kind of book. Maybe I was expecting more from it because I've seen so many people read and rave about it. Yet, for the most part, I was just bored with the whole thing. First, I got the audio book but then it wasn't working. No matter where I was, wifi or not, the thing just wouldn't play in certain sections or at all. At one point, I almost threw my phone at the wall or outside the window while driving 80 mph.
Once I gave up on the audio, I got the ebook. After getting it on my kindle, I did a little jiggle dance. I still sent little worshipping words to the book gods because god forbid my kindle crash or something. Maybe this book was cursed and that's why it wasn't working for me. Or maybe it just wasn't meant to be.
Luckily for me, it worked! I was so happy to dive into it that I kind of blocked out the rest of the world. At first, the book was good or maybe I was just young and naïve. After a couple of chapters, I realized how slowly I was reading. No, it wasn't because I was trying to digest everything - it was because I was bored out of my mind. The characters were okay but they didn't really grab my attention. Then there's the romance and that was something I could've gone without if I'm being honest.
Overall, it was kind of meh to me. I wish I liked it a lot more than I originally did. Hoping the second book gets better as well. If not, I'm doomed.
