mementomorivv's review against another edition

I dnfed the audiobook 22% in but I plan to read an ebook or physical copy because that seems to be the easiest format for me when it comes to the author's writing. the Audiobook was still fun, I just didn't pick this up at the right time :)

I have NO WORDS! I loved this book SO MUCH, I might actually be annoyed by it.
The only thing I can say is I feel like there are a few unanswered questions and I need MORE!

Points for creativity and points for having cool characters!! I wanted to love this book, I really did. I really tried. But I was just laboring through it the whole time. It just dragged for me. I don’t know what it was— the lack of action? The writing style? I don’t know. I think I just don’t like it stuff happens TO the main character all the time rather than the main character making agentive decisions. I think the only reason I didn’t like this book that much was purely out of personal preference and not because there was something wrong with it structurally.
