The King of Infinite Space by Lyndsay Faye

2.0

This was a rough book for me. It was hard to stay hooked into the story because there was so much build up- maybe even too much. Ben doesn't really appreciate what he has in front of him, he is kind of dramatic. A lot of the concepts brought up throughout the book were hard for me to understand. I couldn't see how a lot of them fit into the book. There were scenes between Ben and Horatio that were steamy, but I just wanted to yell at them to get together! I did not like the ending. It was a little depressing. I thought it was a cool idea, but all the action happened in the last 200-ish pages. There were a lot of quotes from the book that I really liked;
