2.75

This book had so many ideas that could have become really interesting and engaging world building elements but instead ended up being mostly abandoned. I think this book is mismarketed and should be labeled a romance. I did enjoy the romance but was overall disappointed by the lack of depth of everything else in the story.  Probably half of my drive to finish this book came from frustration on things being unresolved, and in the end, they mostly stayed that way. 2.75 stars for good foundations, and a captivating love story.
