Ahhh, sorry you didn't like it! It was very slow. The hidden meanings probably made the story really likable for me, because otherwise, like you said, it's like a diary.

I finiiiiished! Only took me around a month XD 3.5 stars from me. Not that great, definitely not worth the hype for me. I honestly thought nothing happened throughout the entire book...

Sorry you didn't like it that much, but you have a good point; there wasn't a lot happening in this book, and it was more like a diary than a story...It is pretty slow, and maybe the only reason behind the hype was that it might have been slightly different from the normal, and that it was another book written by a well-known author.

I looooove the author, but I do feel like most of the hype was because of her and not that much about the book. I'm not saying the book is bad, but comparing to her other books, it's so different and definitely not one that I would recommend.

I'm happy for the people who loved it though. I hate reading books that don't make me feel good and excited and this one for me was so boring.

What are you guys reading next?

Trisha (semi-hiatus) (booksreviewsandprocrastination) | 3571 comments Yeah, that is pretty true!

Next, as in right now? I need to finish A Gathering Of Shadows (wow I'm actually reading a book by the same author as this, I'd forgotten), and I'll be starting Everless tomorrow, and then Gilded Wolves the day after....and then many more BRs for the rest of the month! I don't think I'll be able to get in any other books except my BRs!

I read the Shades of Magic series when it launched and I gave it 4.5 stars, but I don't remember it AT ALL. Only a few concepts and characters. I want to read it again soon! Hope you like it :)

I absolutely LOVED this book!!! I really felt Addie's life, both in 1714 France, through the salons in France, to modern day New York City. She wanted to live life, and she really got that chance - at a price. After making a deal with the devil, she finds herself immortal but no-one can remember her, until she meets Henry. She doesn't understand why but finds out later and it was no shock to me. Great storytelling which is typical of V.E. Schwab. Love, Love, Love this book.

I'm so intrigued! The forgetting thing reminds me a bit of one of my favourite films, Kimi no Na Wa :D

Seems like this book is very divisive, I've seen some people on my feed who absolutely loved it and some who were extremely disappointed so I'm not going to go into it with too many expectations. (Obviously I hope that I'll think it's awesome though)

Ashley W (starfallreads1) | 6012 comments Just came in at my library. I'll be starting tonight. I love the idea of book. Most reviews I have seen have been favorable, so I anticipate liking it, but there have been a few that really hated it. Looking forward to getting into it. :)
