I don't know how long it took me, but it took well over three months, and I'm a fast reader. But this book was like slow torture to me. Just my opinion.

It took me four days, but honestly I speed read it. I skimmed a lot of parts.I hate when books take too long to read.I thought it was going to get better, but sadly no.
Never really got this book, it didn't take me too long but I still can't figure out what the attraction is to this book. Not a recommendation.
About four days.Wish it could have lasted longer, I guess I'll have to do a re-read soon because I miss it. :)
I didn't want it to end, so I took my time and plan on reading it again.
I picked it up on a liveaboard dive trip... had no idea what it was about. I couldn't put it down between dives. I was missing the characters when I finished it. I probably read it in less than 10 hours within a couple days and completely followed the time line switch ups. Between author and editor... good job.
I think it took me 3 or 4 days. For me, the book was very predictable, though I did enjoy some of the pretty writing. I could really see some of the worlds she built, shimmering in front of me.
Forever! I think the only book that has taken me longer was Game of Thrones! The cover is pretty, that's the only recommendation I can give.
I read it in less than a day. It was beautiful. It drew me in and made me completely forget about my surroundings as I was reading it. Which is good, because I was outside a barn in the middle of August while my cousin was bathing chickens. This book is honestly the only thing that could make time fly in that kind of a situation!
It actually took me a week, mostly because I was busy with school so I didn't read it for 4 days. In total I'd say around 5-6 hours. It was amazing!
It took me about 3 "sessions" reading every chance I could, even during work. I thought it was one of the best stories I've read in a long time. I recommend this to anyone looking for a great read.
It took me 3 days but only because I had to stop to get errans done. But loved the book, very different.
I don't understand how it is possible that some people didn't like this book. It is amazing. I read it super fast.

This one took me about a week and a half. I kept wanting to read other things, and for me the book didn't emotionally connect with me. I did like the pretty cover and writing, but it needed more action.
A few days! Loved this book. I think it is very special. Went into the read with no expectations, and found that I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Very satisfied. Have even given it as a gift.
I also read it in about a week. I was laid up with a broken foot and was happy to have this book get me through the pain and boredom. I thought it was fantastic!
It took me about three days to finish it. Although it didn't looks like a beach read, I was wanting to read it for a while so it came to the beach with me! I loved this book and definitely have to read it again as I feel that I missed a lot!
I loved this book and it only took me 3 or 4 days to read. I hated having it end, and I plan or reading it again
months! I read eight other books before I could finish this I've! Ehhh...I don't want to relive those days ha
About a week. I kept losing track of WHEN things were happening. I had to stop reading and skim back through the book to keep track of all the dates!
I don't recall, but this is one if the most delightful books I've read. I wish I could find more like it.

It started out slow. I didn't really get what was happening at first but then as I got into the story, it took me 4 days.
I abandoned ship about 1/4 of the way through. I felt a little sorry for the author, a first-timer as a I recall, as the book was wildly overhyped when it was released and my expectations were not realistic. (I remember reading somewhere that the publisher was counting on it to fill the void left in sales by the end of the Harry Potter cycle).
I started it the second it arrived on my doorstep from Amazon, and read straight through without stopping. Maybe 6 hours total. Amazing book.
