strailxx 's review for:

Shades of Grey by Jasper Fforde
3.0
adventurous emotional mysterious reflective tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Overall this book is super hard to get into, I had to put it down a few times overall to get through it and I don't seem to be the only one with a hard time getting through the crunchy start.

Overall the world within the book and the last third of the book really upped its rating for me. I found myself reflecting and drawing comparisons to our own world within the last third of the book that made it overall a pleasant finish to an otherwise semi slow read.
