Interesting story but poorly edited. From bad grammar, to missing words, to incorrect uses of phrases - I was surprised given it's such a popular book.

I had a great time reading it, but realistically I couldn't give it anything higher than 3 stars because it was just so painfully badly written. 

That being said, the plot itself was great, the world was interesting, and the romance was fun. At the end of the day, I did really enjoy this book, and ultimately, that’s the reason I chose to read it, so it’d be a bit disingenuous to rate it TOO badly because of the poor writing.
