Review:
I got this book from the library, but if I had bought this book, I would have been very disappointed. The world was intresting, with a lot of different factions. I liked the characters. But, the plot. The book took place under a couple of days, which meant the plot had to be fast paced. The problem is that in the first half, it was too fast paced. I often felt confused over were the scene took place, and why she was there. It got better in second half, where everything felt more connected.
There were several times that I almost put down this book, but I read on.
Why? Because it had so much potential. But, in the end, this isn’t a keeper, at least not to me.
