I had a hard time getting into this one. The premise of the story sounded interesting but I just had a hard time connected to the characters and the story. There were times when I was more engaged than others but I just couldn't stay engaged. Things maybe drug out a little longer than I was expecting on certain parts, more focus on others. I was expecting more character/relationship development between George, Will and Sebastian and it just didn't happen. I think this is one of the things that caused the most frustration and disengagement. The story has a cliffhanger ending and I don't even really care to pick up the next book to figure out the ending and that is not like me. I usually want to know even if I'm not super into the book but I just can't with this one. It was too long to read another one like it to get the ending. I just couldn't engage.
