I am really not enjoying the Ife/Maximus relationship. Also she says his name all the time and he literally NEVER says hers.

I have no idea how I feel about this book. It’s a very interesting and engaging read, but it’s been 170 pages (out of 408) and neither myself or the characters know why they’re doing anything. It’s interesting, but at some point I need to have some idea WHY they are doing/learning this stuff.

At this point I would maybe give a 3.5 rating. While the main theme and purpose of the novel is handled fairly well from my view, I’ve been struggling with understanding character motivations and actions. I feel some characterizations aren’t consistent, and despite being in first person POV I don’t feel like I’m really getting to dig into any character to understand why they’re making certain choices.
