Lucid

Okay. So it took me a hot minute to figure out what I wanted to rate this and I'm still not even sure if this is a correct representation. I don't think a rating can explain. For the first 250 pages of this book, I would have rated it a 1. Honestly. It was so bad. The subplots were actually ridiculous, the characters were SO shallow, the writing was flat out bad, and I was bored. The ONLY reason I didn't manage to talk myself into DNFing it was because the plot was intriguing and I wanted to find out what happened. I really just wanted to see how it ended. But again, I did not at all enjoy the first 250 pages.

The last 90-ish pages completely changed. It honestly seemed like it was written by someone else. It was riveting. I couldn't put it down. I ignored the intermittently buzzing dryer, letting our clothes get wrinkled, in favor of finishing this book that I didn't like five minutes ago. I truly had no idea what was going to happen up until the last page.

Am I glad I powered through to finish this book? Yes. Would I read it again? No, probably not.
