Did not finish book. Stopped at 13%.
Wasn't hitting the spot and all the slang was confusing. Will pick it up again later. Wanted something more dragon focused.

It was good, just slower than what I was in the mood for. Plan on picking it back up later.

It was fine. Writing is rather bland. I didn't feel any excitement or nerves reading the book. Disappointing tbh. I thought it might have been because I saw the movie first, but someone else said his writing is bland and stilted so I don't think it's just me.
