Finished Part 1. This book has NOT hooked me much until the end of this part of the story. I think the end of this part perhaps redeemed the slow and uninteresting buildup, I audibly went "wtf" a couple times. Definitely a good amount of quotable passages throughout, though.

DNF. Pretentious Funny Games wannabe with bad execution. Skimmed through some future chapters and ultimately decided my time would be better spent on something else.

3/5⭐ so far. There are several things I really like about the narrative and messing with the trad novel format. I find myself picking this up and continuing it more frequently than I would have guessed.

I don't know what to think of this book. I feel like I'm going to have to do a re-analysis after I finish the series. Hoping that this last bit of the book has something more for me.

I THINK this is finally picking up? But jfc this book needs to figure out what it's doing, I feel like mostly nothing has happened.

My boy Pynchon really hates The Beatles. Also what am I even reading?

Almost halfway through, it's a solid fantasy. Some creative ideas. Banter is quite lighthearted. Excited to try the supposedly more mature/dark Stormlight Archives. I will say that crime crew is not my usual topic of interest but I will surely be moving on to read the second book at this point.

I fell off the reading wagon as soon as I hit my 2024 goal in Dec so started reading this as a fun & easy way to try and get back on. Almost DNF'd, I know all romance is cringe and trash to an extent but this one had me displeased from Ch 1. It's more engaging after 1/3 way through, it actually feels more like an easy & fun read now. I may actually make it through this one.

I'm honestly enjoying this one a lot more now. I felt like the first third of the book failed to really hook me.

Slowww. Not been that engaging but I'm holding out for some of that same love I had for the first book.
