Did not finish book. Stopped at 48%.

by far one of the poorly written things i have read. i do not understand why it is written in third person omniscience. that can be done, but it is very difficult, especially for a novel as short as this one. it is completely mismarketed and miscategorized. this is not a horror novel. it is more of a thriller, but even then, the pacing is very difficult to get through. there are sign posts for the twist that are too obvious and massive exposition dumps of lore done multiple times. i have no doubt that this author can write. but i expect a novel of this quality from a person starting off writing, not someone who is a published professional. i blame the editors and marketing for this. clearly, their gauges were off.
