This book fucked me up emotionally. I was not quite prepared for the level of emotion it brought out.

Godkiller by Hannah Kaner
Did not finish book. Stopped at 14%.

No emotion, just flat. Didn’t care about the characters or the story.
Prologue was cool, but I became disinterested there after.

The writing isn’t bad. I just need to be able to connect with what’s going on and I wasn’t able to.

There was so much consistently happening in this book while nothing was happening. It was boring. Which is super disappointing being the first one was so good.
