Reviews with the most likes.
It had a plot that, on average, moves along at a good pace; not stopping in one scene overlong. It does bog down or tangent to scenes and people that I didn't perceive as necessary to the main story.
It also brings in alot of political back-biting, which is something I don't like to read. But, about the time you're ready to hit the next track button, the author moves back to the main story and characters.
It has an interesting story-line, one I've not come across before, and it's this that outweighs all the things I mentioned above.
