Sometimes you read a book and just think, this was alright, but I just didn’t love it. There’s no real rhyme or reason, It’s just okay. That is how I felt about this book. I didn’t love or hate it. I didn’t really feel anything towards it. It was interesting but hard to get into. Every time I stopped reading, it took awhile to get back into the world that Engberg created. I wanted to like it more but I just didn’t connect with it.
