2.0

This book was pretty good at first but after like 20-30% it just went down hill. The romance was really neglected and then rushed so it just felt fake and forced. I ended up just skimming the last 100 pages because i could get myself to fully read it. Also not really a big deal but the character description in the book doesn’t match the one on the cover and it frustrated me the whole time i was reading.
