I think this book was compelling and interesting enough for me to finish it, but had some major flaws in my opinion. My biggest personal issues were that there were too many characters, too many plot lines, and some of the language chosen was very modern and slang-y, which I just don’t personally love. It was definitely hard to follow at times and I don’t think I could make every character and their role in the story because there was simply too much going on to fully ingest the story. I thought about DNFing it a few times but in the end there was enough going on to lead me to the end. I believe this is the first in a series, so I can forgive it not wrapping up as neatly as I would have liked, but I don’t think I’ll keep going with it.
