My eyes donโ€™t seem to want to let me continue anymore tonight.

I will say two things though:

1) This book gets so much better after the first hundred pages and I have more of an appreciation for them now.

2) Iโ€™ve found a lot of this to be pretty predictable. Not a complaint, but I figured out a lot of it before it was explained.

Iโ€™m glad I continued reading it.

Instead of continuing the #ACOTAR series for now, Iโ€™ve decided to take on #ShadesOfRustAndRuin, by #AGHoward until my #Parasitology trilogy, by #MiraGrant arrives and Iโ€™ll finally be #reading that, after a few years now.

This book has been quite a slog to get through so far. Iโ€™m about a third of the way done and Iโ€™m so bored with it. Iโ€™d really hoped this would be an interesting read, since itโ€™s based around #Steampunk, #Labyrinth and #GoblinMarket, but itโ€™s so bland, bloated and uninteresting.
