I really love the writing style. The first few chapters were kind of slow paced, but I love the descriptive writing style. It made me feel as if I am the one experiencing this intricate world woven by author. The last chapters made it hard for me to tore my eyes away from the book. The ending was underwhelming but over all I truly enjoyed the book.
