2☆ Review:

I feel sad giving this book two stars, but unfortunately that’s what it was for me. Which I’m upset about since I thought I’d love this book.

I had really enjoyed the beginning, but as it progressed the pacing seemed to get slower and slower. Around the halfway point, I contemplated DNF’ing it, but stuck around to the end. 

I liked the jokes and comedic timing throughout, but I found that the only POV I enjoyed was Crowley’s. The rest of the characters just didn’t suck me in. 

Though, I do hope to watch the tv adaptation of this one day and I believe I’ll enjoy it!
