The writing was great, sometimes so good that I felt like I was wearing the skin of the protagonist which I disliked so much.
I'm so conflicted about this book, it's not bad whatsoever but it wasn't as good as I had hoped it would be. Especially with such gorgeous cover, interesting concept and great writing. I found that the characters fell flat and the ending... I don't even want to elaborate on the ending.
Lastly, once part II begon, I felt like the story started dragging on and so many things were happening at once. Hence my 3 stars, I really did enjoy this book a lot up till a certain point and the ending does not take away from that fact + great writing.
