Behind the Crimson Curtain by E.B. Golden
2.0
The first 20% of the book were very interesting. I was really into the story of a girl and her father, possibly different from everyone else due to their powers, conning their way out of class devides and poverty. And then... What the hell happened? From ~20% to around 60% is just a mess. I couldn't follow what was happening. The political scene has potential, but it's executed in a very messy way.
Firin is not a very likeable main character. She is very manipulative. Most of the time, I wanted things to go wrong for her. No idea how we were supposed to root for her.
Bregan is a little bland. I didn't care much for him or their love story.
Past the 60% point, I could follow the story again, but by that point I've lost all interest and I wasn't sure I would finish the book until I finally got closer to the end.
