2.5

There was so much potential for this book, but the second half really fell short for me. I could see where the author was trying to go with it, but there were too many times where sentences were being dragged on, describing things that didn’t move the story along. I feel bad for giving it the rating I am, as the ending shows the personal level of this story. I would give the author another chance if he published more books, as I think this one was a stepping stone.
