I couldn’t, I couldn’t do it anymore. Everyone says to “just stick with it” but this book is so incredibly scattered, chaotic and muddled that I had to stop.

Gah! I’m so frustrated because this book could’ve been everything for me. I love massive fantasy worlds, magic, gods and a plethora of species and yet I couldn’t enjoy it because I’m too damn confused the entire time.
I couldn’t “see” the world.
I’m sorry, I can’t just go with the flow 100% I need SOME answers to grasp onto, minuscule ones would’ve been acceptable at the very least.

If I had been able to see the world better and connect with the characters more then maybe I could’ve been fine with the “mystery” of everything. But when every aspect of the story is jumbled together it makes the reading experience far less enjoyable and clouded by frustration and confusion.
