I wanted to love this book, but found it too slow and predictable. Before I get bored halfway through it. sorry Rating: 2 / 5

This book was painful to pass. The scenario was less interesting, and I’m surprised he has received many good reviews. I have a weakness for historical novels, but I had to stop-to medium term and the end to see who they end up wth. I hated this book because it is a waste of my time. Rating: 1 / 5

This book is incredibly long and tedious. I was shocked to see many positive comments he has received. The characters are mostly two-dimensional and the script has jumped a lot. The main character has too many candidates and their lack of movement in the direction of one of them was boring. I was 80% through the book and had no idea who she was to end with. Even the main character was very inconsistent. One moment, it goes against social norms and the next moment she heard people bash it without even batting an eyelash, or defend themselves. The book is rather dark and depressing. I was totally bored in the middle of the book and began skimming the rest. I would not recommend anyone actually read this book. Rating: 2 / 5

Pretty boring and slow. The writing is stiff – the author wants us to show. I will avoid in the future by this author’s books. Rating: 1 / 5
