i spent 9 days just to read chapter 1, i didn't even understand what i was reading, and when i got to chapter 2 i finally started to understand the plot and restarted from the beginning. honestly i didn't really enjoy it, it wasn't interesting at all and bored me to death, the plot is fine i guess, but not a fan of the writing. seriously i just forced myself to finish it and finally it was done. the end.
