I really wanted to love this book, but clearly, since it took me two months to read, something didn’t quite click. The book is written as though you’re in the audience of a play watching the story unfold on stage, with occasional fourth wall breaks. I’d never read something written this way and maybe that played into my struggle with this. Despite the bad rating, I wouldn’t tell someone to stay away from this book. There are a lot of really cool elements to it, particularly in the worldbuilding, and I could see some people finding an instant connection to the story and flying right through it.
