Rating: 3 Ravens
In the beginning the book was a little slow to start with to many quick jumps changing the scene that it got me a little bit turned around and I had to back read a few times to make sure I was following along at the pace that I felt I should be. I began to realize that it was reading in a rather disjointed way. Which I believe is how it is meant to be read. However it became increasingly harder to read with what I felt in some areas was complete skips of detail. Rushed is the feeling I was getting as if the author felt like the need to get to the core of the story was all that mattered. There in making some of the first posts and pages to me seem as if they were not as important as they should have been.
I got past all that and began to read the story finally falling into the world that was compelling. The idea was rich and colorful and belonged within the flow of the story. As if the Author found themselves finally and fell into that creative flow the world began to come alive and there in was what really mattered. The relationships were very descriptive and fit good with each other. I enjoyed how things seemed selfless and feel that the book is good for the younger adult scene.
Through all it's bumpy ride and beginning I believe that the book deserves at least a chance and say that to read it you may or may not like it but I believe giving it that chance is exactly what it needs.
