I really want to like this book but I'm so disappointed. :( The writing isn't engaging and the descriptions are lacking, and I'm having a hard time envisioning the setting. The internal dialogue sucks and I cringe at every "for the win." Debating on pushing through, or giving up and trying something new.

I don't think I've read a book with more dialogue (internal and external) than this one. It is almost entirely dialogue. Descriptions of places and actions are a few sentences at most, and everything else is either thoughts or chat. I think I'm going to skim to the end just to finish it.

Not going to lie, I am struggling to get into this book. The writing just isn't grabbing me-- reads a little like fanfiction. 😬
“I glance at the map to be sure I'm not making a fool of myself. "That is Chakir right there, isn't it?" Scribe's training for the win” (p. 73).
I cringed. Maybe I'm more of a literary purist than I think I am. But I'm going to stick it out!
