Started off so slow for the first 80-100 pages (took me over a week), then it dug its claws in and wouldn't let up (just a few hours, didn't want to put it down). I'm glad I stuck with it!

Amazing book but a little long. Some chapters can get a little boring but the plot is going to make you keep reading.
