it was all awesome and fine and dandy but i hate the writing so much cuz the story/the plot is so amazing and had way more potential if it was written differently. unfortunately i saw so many parts where the writer shouldve showed and not told and it wouldve been way better if the things werent just put so simply like "this person died" or something plain like that. it was amazing either way, though, but the plot is definitely the thing that makes this book good - not the writing. i feel like i can ignore that since the book is just so good, but it couldve been better. it couldve been perfect, even.
