mostly will be 3, yes. :)
unless the last 300 pages charm me...

if I may ask, what didn't work for you?"
lots of things. the world building was a mess, the characters had no personality, the plot was very slow & full of plot convivences, the writing was very average and its non-quotable (an 800+ page novel should have nice quotes), the romance was rushed & underdeveloped
the only redeeming quality was ead and even she doesn't have much of a personality sooo

Yes, I completely agree. If a book is above 400+ pages, the writing style should be engaging and "quotable"
Ahh, I was looking forward to the romance.
I think I'll give this book a pass.
