It took me 4 months to read this book. Clearly something didn't work for as well as it did in the first book in this series. I think it might be the pacing that slowed down in the middle part of the book or the romantic sub-plot that bored me to tears.
And with all of that, this was still a 4 star read.

I think this was my third attempt at this book and it still took me more than 3 months to finish it. I can appreciate what the author was doing, hence the third try at it, but it just didn't click with me. I felt like the plot was meandering a lot and the characters didn't stand that well on their own to be enough to carry the story for me. 
I would still recommend it to people that enjoy reading high-concept and theme-oriented stories. I just wish it worked for me.

just not in the mood for a thriller currently ...
