I do think pacing was a part of it, but definitely not all. It was one of those books that I just couldn't connect with, and so I couldn't absorb the information well. When I was done. I wasn't even sure what I'd read! I'm glad you had a much better experience. :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532824873675624385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-71182803242842294742014-01-18T16:52:21.922+01:002014-01-18T16:52:21.922+01:00YAY!

I'm quite happy to hear you'll be reading this one, but now I'm scared you might not like it and will hate me for recommending it!<br />But yeah, the world building was fantastic and I loved it!

The main thing that was worrying me was that everyone was mentioning that the world building was slightly complicated and hard to grasp, but I'm glad to hear that it didn't bother you! I'm super excited to read about this world now!<br />I love characters like Paige. She sounds awesome! I'm also super excited to see the development in her relationship with Warden. I'm definitely excited for this one now!<br />Thanks for such a fantastic review, Pili! I'm off to reserve this one at my library now! :DSamantha Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07751599254054669479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-10580215666324421882014-01-17T20:27:31.994+01:002014-01-17T20:27:31.994+01:00Yep, I really loved it!

My only frustration was at all the hints and the real (and unknown) purpose of the Rephaim here, but that is also making me quite excited for the next book! <br />I'm hoping we'll get book 2 in the fall!<br /><br />Thanks again for pushing this book on me!!Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-54384412559496780192014-01-17T20:24:23.360+01:002014-01-17T20:24:23.360+01:00I am so happy all my pressure paid off :-P I would...I am so happy all my pressure paid off :-P I would have been sad if you had hated it...and felt bad for making you read it. I loved it so very much. It is paced as an adult book rather than ya so I can totally see how the pacing frustrated some readers. There is a bit of world info dumping but like you I loved it. I can't wait for the next book! Since we've been introduced to the world and characters I'm enthused to see where Shannon goes next. Great review Pili!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12630672600904860698noreply@blogger.com
