Cannot wait to see your review. I finished it a little while ago and had pretty much nothing nice to say about it. I'm not even sure why I gave it three stars.

ugh i haven't even touched it in a week :/
I loved it! It gets so good!! (well for me it did)
honestly SJM's books are so boring in my opinion (no offense to anyone) but she's just not for me
Omg I'm not the only one. I didn't even finish it. Could not find the motivation for it.
I was suffering 30% in and only got through it because one of my friends read it and wanted someone to talk about it with. Didn't get even mildly interesting until literally halfway through.

i've given every book of hers i've read 2 stars - just not my cup of tea i guess

oh jesus. at least i have "mildly interesting" to look forward to hahahaha
I have it at 3.5 right now but I'm considering lowering it, do NOT like how she portrays a bisexual character (I happen to be bi myself)

oh, yikes. i'll keep an eye out for that
I was so bored reading this book and put it back n my shelf at 150 pages.......

i did exactly the same thing, then powered through 50 more pages, then put it back again

i don't NOT care about the characters, but like...i don't love them so much that i can handle it being JUST them
Kayla wrote: "Beginning is so boring tbh"
glad it picks up
you can do this!!! personally this book was a let down but hope it gets better for you LMAO
I finished this three days ago. The second book was better in my opinion, because this book was really boring for most of the part!

ugh thank you. i haven't touched it in foreverrrr

that's my problem with it! i'd much rather hate a book than be soooo boredddd
i read the first 200 pages, got so bored and had to leave it for later. i can't believe nothing remarkably big has happened yet! is there really a need for this book to be so unnecessarily long?
I'm afraid it doesn't get any better. I'm reading it too and I'm struggling through this !

i'm at 224 and nope, absolutely nothing interesting. the #1 thing this book has to be is entertaining. like it's not exactly bringing any moral lessons or literary merit to the table so i at least want to have a good time. AH i'm so upset

i've barely touched it in weeks!! it's killing me!!
Aww sorry that your bored in the book tbh the second one is the best!

honestly i think sarah j maas just isn't for me but i'll keep tryin'. thanks girl
*whispers* DNF.....you don't need this terrible book in your life
oh bless. i'm about to read the second one and i'm so worried it's going to be a disaster. i really liked the first but i'm thinking this love is too good to be true.
I keep putting off starting this from mixed reviews. I enjoyed the 2nd book and I kinda don't want this to be a disappointment. Her other series is already beginning to wear on me a bit. (Plus, it's a freaking tome. Why so much?)
Yasmeen wrote: "honestly SJM's books are so boring in my opinion (no offense to anyone) but she's just not for me"
Same -- they're just not my thing. Lots of my friends like them, and that's great, but Maas and I are just not compatible.
The first 200 pages wee honestly the best part of the book for me, and the rest of the books wasn't that great for me.
Emma wrote: "*whispers* DNF.....you don't need this terrible book in your life"
tempting but i do need the catharsis of writing a proper rant about it
Elizabeth wrote: "oh bless. i'm about to read the second one and i'm so worried it's going to be a disaster. i really liked the first but i'm thinking this love is too good to be true."
the second is...a lot. i've given every SJM book i've read 2 stars, though, so i may not be the most reliable source

i have barely been able to make myself pick it up. maybe it improves a little ways down the line, but 250 pages in and i still haven't been even a little entertained.

i think i have to agree :/ i've given every book by her i've read 2 stars, and at this point i may have to give up trying

oh man! the first 200 pages have been rough so that's not a good sign

I absolutely understand, writing a book rant feels like all your anger is being funneled into something productive and your soul is being cleansed of all impurities, it's one of the most satisfying experiences
Ah I found this book so boring too! I had to DNF it for the time being.
That's exactly how I felt.....
So much description with literally NOTHING else
And to think this stupid book will win the goodreads choice awards. It's horrible and it's not even young adult, it's new adult.

it's discovering new frontiers of boring

this is so true. i hate that the goodreads awards are much more "how many people have read this book" than "is this book genuinely good"
I still have to read this book. Now I'm a lil bit worried after reading your post. I also agree with you about Goodreads Awards. I honestly didn't read even 1/4 of those books. It's indeed more like the popularity contest instead of quality.
I'm actually loving it more than the previous two so far! ACOMAF was tooooooo muuuuccchhhh.
