I have mixed feelings about this one. It felt a bit repetitive in the middle. Could have been shorter. A generous 3 stars.

Took me a few chapters to get into it, but it was worth it. The middle dragged a tiny bit, but the ending totally made up for it. Not bad at all.

An average read for me. The writing was fine, but I didn't feel very connected to the characters. They felt a bit flat. A generous 3 stars.

A solid read. Writing is good, just wish there was a bit more depth in certain parts. Still kept my attention though. I'd probably recommend it to a friend.

Good, but not quite perfect. I liked the main character, though some of the side plots were just okay. Still a good book.
