This is a reread, and I still rate it 3 stars. It's a quick read, but I did not put much effort and time into finishing the book quickly.
I was hoping years after I first read it, I will change my mind.. but no. In my opinion, the depth is lacking. The writing is good, but the story is not that appealing. I remember I liked the second book more, and I'm planning to reread it within the year.
