I started this one and set it aside, too. Just didn't catch my interest.

And the whole concept is very interesting, although I feel like it might rely too much on romance to propell the story forward?

I really enjoyed it but I also adore a large host of characters, a la high fantasy, so I can see why this wouldn't appeal to everyone. I hope your next read can keep you more riveted, Jasprit!Keertanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071392026876644282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-88690141009483532042016-02-04T13:09:45.235+00:002016-02-04T13:09:45.235+00:00I’ve seen this book around.

And I totally understand your decision to DNF the book. I used to be the kind of reader who always finishes books, but last year I find myself DNFing books easier, mostly because my real life hectic and I don’t have much time to read. Why read books that I don’t enjoy! Great honest review, Jasprit!Kseniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05362452522963234123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-10901181025600036202016-02-04T03:56:57.282+00:002016-02-04T03:56:57.282+00:00I still haven't been able to read the right Fa...I still haven't been able to read the right Fama book for me, to be honest.

I had a really hard time with Monstrous Beauty, so I think her style just isn't for me. I don't love that more and more characters kept being added and nothing was getting resolved, that would cause me stress ;-)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-60898656503718978142016-02-03T14:17:21.742+00:002016-02-03T14:17:21.742+00:00This book has been sitting on my shelf since its r...This book has been sitting on my shelf since its release, but I can't bring myself to read it for some reason. I've been meaning to give it away or donate it to my library, but then I always tell myself that I will read it.

I was lured in by the pretty cover, but I don't think I liked it either. For the most part, I skimmed. That really sucks though that you were liking it until all the new characters were introduced. Sorry this was disappointing, Jasprit! :( Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13304521473521896294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-55241642904811130672016-02-03T12:13:05.102+00:002016-02-03T12:13:05.102+00:00Aw I'm sorry you DNFd this.

But yeah. I do understand wanting to quit if you lose interest :) I loved it a lot, though. I'm sorry you didn't finish it. <3 But thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about it :)Carina Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10962924929801205597noreply@blogger.com
