Now we are getting somewhere & yet it’s almost the end of the novel! Why couldn’t the book start from here in my opinion is the only truly engaging part as I now actually want to read the story for the characters not just to get it done with as 400 so pages I had to push myself to finish & not give up on this story as it has so many great reviews there had to be something of noteworthy here right!

It’s more a determination to finish than anything at this point! The progress is so slow & yeah very descriptive, but what’s the point really?! Where is the action/drama/romance/even the hint of intrigue I thought was happening when found out Sarai’s father everyone else in this magical/mythical place! There has to be a point to all this leading up...its just taking too long! Lol I’m not a patient reader!

On second thought I’m having a difficult time getting into this novel! The progress is slow & not very engaging! I’m counting pages until the end of each chapter now—not a good sign I’m more looking forward to it being over than the actual story! I have no “skin in the game” can’t connect with Lazlo he is so boring! Only think we both like our stories & books, but idk the point yet of his travels!

It’s good so far! Kinda slow building, but excellent writing & descriptions! Granted I have been busy with work & free time is cut up with extra errands as needing to go to multiple stores just to find certain items! So that could be another reason why haven’t read as much or as fast as I normally prob would as this novel was very highly recommended!!!

Heard so many good things about this novel & seen more love than hate on this site with the reviews that I’m excited to bump this up on my TBR list with give this novel a try!!!!!
