Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
AS CAWPILE:
Characters: 2 | Atmosphere: 4 | Writing: 2 | Plot: 2 | Intrigue: 1 | Logic: 2 | Enjoyment: 1
Total: 2.00
DNF at 51%. Unfortunately, this book is too long for me to maintain interest in it. The writing still needs some serious editing as of the ARC's access, and I hope that it went through it before publication. There are times the same sentence is repeated only pages apart, and the tone of voice is not consistent. Our main character Dianna is non-sensibly crass for someone who has lived as long as she has, and reads more like a 17-year-old than an adult character in an adult book. I have no issue with crass characters, but the way she behaves doesn't indicate a character who has lived as long as she does. There are convenient explanations for everything that doesn't make sense, and after a while, I couldn't help but roll my eyes at them. I found myself dreading reading the next 50%, as I really did not care about what happened to who.
