adventurous challenging inspiring tense slow-paced

While the pacing if this book is slow  it is so incredibly imersive you don't realise it. You're so wrapped up in the characters and their intense emotions you want every scene to last just a little longer!

apierlessbridge's review against another edition

This seems like the exact kind of book I would love but for some reason I couldn't get into it. I may try to revisit in the future. It also seemed like 100 pages in and not much had happened or was happened or had changed from the beginning.
