Look, I am going to be honest with you. I honestly don’t know how I feel about this book. I thought that I had a general idea about it once I started reading it. As I kept reading it, the more conflicted I felt. I honestly don’t know how I feel about it, but I will give you my best impressions.
When I started reading the book, I felt confused. I didn’t know what I was reading. The timeline kept changing, which left me wondering where this is supposed to be. And I didn’t know that there was going to be multiple POVs. There were too many characters to keep up.
Once I got to understand more about the plot or general plot, I got more engaged in the story. I truly felt the pain regarding the society issues with each other and the characters issues with it too. But the pacing in the story was dragging. At first, it was rushed from the beginning, then it slowed toward the middle and then rushed way too much toward the end. It left me all over the place.
Honestly, I don’t know how I feel about this story. I know it has potential, but the pacing and the multiple POVs got to me.
