3.5ish stars - not a great start to my reading year
This book has an awesome premise and I was definitely intrigued. However, the tension isn't really carried through because the pacing is so slow. Also, the writing is at times overly flowery and at others very stark and awkward. This definitely felt like a first novel.
Having said that, I do think that the premise is interesting enough that it might be worth reading future books with this main character (or at least giving them a shot to see if the writing is improved). We'll see!
