It'd be quite disappointing if the main character was difficult to connect with. But yea, I was really looking forward to this book because I'd read a lot of good reviews about it. I just couldn't really get into it and my mind kept wandering.anicheunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04354599944470683233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700449331064670085.post-83633222825683041542016-08-03T17:40:37.388-05:002016-08-03T17:40:37.388-05:00I would still give it a read when you get a chance...I would still give it a read when you get a chance. It's not a bad book, I just couldn't connect with it or the characters.

And yes, I'm the same way in that, if the book is good, I'll stick around, but I may not enjoy the book as much if the characters aren't created well.anicheunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04354599944470683233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700449331064670085.post-53336398644877927072016-08-03T17:37:55.137-05:002016-08-03T17:37:55.137-05:00I have the same problem.

I might still try to read more in this series and hope the characters become more relatable.anicheunghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04354599944470683233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700449331064670085.post-66962944947023186762016-08-01T15:52:43.620-05:002016-08-01T15:52:43.620-05:00Sorry it wasn't that memorable, but it does so...Sorry it wasn't that memorable, but it does sound like it had some good parts as well and like the mystery kept your attention. Sounds like there were too many side plots and tangents in this one. And if you don't feel a connection with the characters it's more difficult to enjoy the book usually. Glad to hear there was still one character you did like.Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14284689418552571180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-700449331064670085.post-78861330333528611952016-07-30T14:26:53.957-05:002016-07-30T14:26:53.957-05:00Oh this is a bummer as I have this book and though...Oh this is a bummer as I have this book and thought it sounded really good.
