92- Uprooted

15/10/2015

Started off really really nicely but ended very very flat.

Every ten years, the Dragon picks out a girl to come live with him. For what reasons? I have no fckin clue. This year, Agnieszka thinks that her bestie Kasia will be chosen because she's smart and pretty but he ends up choosing her. Why? Again. I have no fuckin clue! So Agnieszka finds herself living in this castle alone with the Dragon. He tries to teach her some magic. Shit happens and Kasia is in danger because she has been corrupted. Blah blah blah they save her. They also save the queen that has been corrupted. Dragon falls in love with Agnieska. Blah blah blah. It all ends well and they live happily ever after.

Honestly, I would've never thought that they were in love. Dragon was such an ass. Hate him. WHERE ARE THE FEELS? I don't ship it. Also, as much as I love my best friend, I wouldn't go through extreme measures to save them and risk my life in the process. I felt like everything for Agnieska was just too easy. She never really failed at anything even thought she said that her friend Kasia was better. But that's the thing you know? The author didn't show it. She just wrote it. So I didn't FEEL shit while reading this. Kinda disappointed.

Meh. Let's just say that I wouldn't buy this book, but the general idea and the world reminds me a bit of The School of Good and Evil, a book that I really adored therefore it's a 2.5 stars for me...for the effort.

91- A Thousand Pieces of You

7/10/2015

Marguerite's parents are exceptional scientists that have created a device called the Firebird. With this device, you can travel to other dimensions where different situations could've happened in your life if you've made different decisions. But when Marguerite's father, Henri, is murdered and his associate, Paul suddenly disappears with the Firebird, Marguerite and her friend Theo go on a wild chase through different dimensions in order to kill Paul.

Only good parts about this book are: the cover & Russian Lieutenant Paul Markov.

Other than that, there's nothing and I really mean NOTHING really good about this book.Because let's be honest here, travelling in different dimensions is definitely not a new thing and I think that the author could've added so much more to the book.Every time a problem occurred, it was like " Oh let's just get in another dimension and run away from it." and that, for me, is just not cool. Fight, girl, you gotta fight! Like literally, this book is just about a bunch of chases. And the plot with the "twists"? Quite predictable.
Also character wise, Theo was a bore to read, Marguerite was trying a little too hard and normal Paul was just so distant from the reader. I understand that the author wanted us to feel like Paul was an awkward potato, but I didn't even want to give a flying fck about him, he was just too bland.

Ugh.
Read at your own risk.

90- A Great and Terrible Beauty

1/10/2015

Two words: it sucked.

Gemma lives in India with her parents. When her mom suddenly died in a mysterious attack, her family sends her to England to be a proper lady. She meets a group of bitches and they form this secret group to travel in another dimension. A shit load of gossip happens about here. Then... Drama, drama, drama. Oh look a handsome young man. More drama. Oh shit Gemma meets her mother in the other world and now she has to fight of Circe. Little tiny ass twist here in the last 20 pages. Ah well, the end.

Maybe I would've liked this a couple years back, but I really don't like it.

Only thing I can possibly say that is special is the settings in India. I felt like I was there. That part was nice. But after that, the whole book went to shit with its humongous amount of FLUFF and DRAMA where this girl is rejected because she isn't of high class or this other girl is cornered because she isn't pretty. Really? Where's the action in the book? Oh right, in the last 20 pages! I feel like I've wasted so much of my time. *regrets*

89-Oathbreaker

21/9/2015

Every time when someone asks, I tell them that I like fantasy books until I read something like this...

Start off with a peaceful family of farmers. Then there's like this "Harvest" season happening where assassin guilds come and recruit some newbies out of their will for no logical reason. They pick Aron and he happens to be so fuckin powerful because his powers are almost as strong as his Fae ancestors. Damn. *rolls eyes* They meet this girl named Dari that joins them to fight some dead spirits. They make a shit load of oaths even though Dari and the guys are supposed to be enemies because their races are at war. Shit happens, yet nothing big comes up. They get to the guild and train and don't really know how it ended because I just didn't care anymore at this point.

Main reasons of dissatisfaction: there's no problem to solve (I take that back. There is one, but it's not resolved. You have to read the next book, but that ain't gonna happen coz fack dis), lack of excitement, thought Stormbreaker was an old dude until he awkwardly "flirted" with Dari which is like in the middle of the god dammed book, Aron practically single handedly fought off a shit ton of Spirits and he still acts like a kid that doesn't know jack shit about defending himself, Aron knows the dangers of pushing the Veil yet he still does it because he's a special kind of STOOPEED.

Time to go on the nope train!

I'd like to think that this book would've pleased a younger me but I know for a fact that this is a lie because it's the second time that I've picked it up after dnfing it.

All I can say about this book is that if you look at it with a philosophical pov then it's very special and let's you question the true definition of beauty.(Still, do I need a book to tell me this?) Otherwise, Tally is a dumb bitch, David is a true fckboi and Shay is a drama queen. If it makes you feel any better, I think the world building was original but the way the story went was just too predictable.

Heheee no.

9/9/2015

Forgive me for those who aren't fans but...CRAZY FANGIRL ALERT

This review may contains spoilers.( I try to minimize but sometimes I gotta k?)

Liked it but damn that fist half was filled with Chaol and Aelin arguing :(. It left me like SARAH GODDAMN IT, YOU ARE SINKING MY SHIP. I was really frustrated and I just felt like slapping both of them with a glove.

Second half was a lot better. They decided to grow up and there was a more considerable amount of action here than the first part. I was restlessly on the edge of my seat living through the relentless plot. Gosh it was amazing. I felt like a ball of nerves ready to explode. Everything was so dangerous and made me so stressed out. Breathe in, breathe out Camly, calm down, it's just a book. NO, YOU DONT UNDERSTAND, YOU DONT KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE. I read books to relax, not to have a heart attack, but damn I loved every single moment of it.

I admit that I didn't really like Rowan at first because of the way that he treated her back in Heir of Fire but I think I might like him a tad more now:'3 he protects her, he fights for her and the way they talk to each other with their minds is just really sweet. What I also like about Rowan is that Celaena can finally be herself in front of him, she can let go of all her worries even if it's just for a little while but ain't that the real definition of love?

Still love Celaena with her usual badassery and her compassion towards Manon. That's exactly how a true queen is supposed to be.

I won't go any further than that.

The ending? Exceptional. You will feel very satisfied.

24/8/2015

Sold into indentured servitude as a child, Phèdre is trained equally in the courtly arts and the talents of the bedchamber, but, above all, the ability to observe, remember, and analyze. Almost as talented a spy as she is courtesan, Phèdre stumbles upon a plot that threatens the very foundations of her homeland. Treachery sets her on her path; love and honor goad her further. And in the doing, it will take her to the edge of despair... and beyond. Hateful friend, loving enemy, beloved assassin; they can all wear the same glittering mask in this world, and Phèdre will get but one chance to save all that she holds dear.

Summary actually sounds interesting eh? You have been mislead.

As much as I love reading BDSM, this is a bit ridiculous. WHERE ARE THE FELLS. Huh where they at? Coz I ain't feelin shit by reading this....I feel like Carey just wanted to write the longest book possible (1015 pages) without caring whether it was interesting or not. I didn't feel a single thing reading through the torture of the poor girl or the friendship with Hyacinth. And the politics? Puh-lease. I've seen many authors do better than this without making it a big mess.

I AIN'T GOT TIME FOR THIS SHIT.

85-Half Bad

17/8/2015

I liked it because of the way that the author created a truly different a world from any other that I've ever read. What she did is that there are two types of witches in the world: the black ones and the white ones with the Black being bad and White, good. But in reality, when you read the book, you realize that the white aren't so nice and the black ones are not so bad either. Everything isn't black or white in the world. It's grey and I think that the author tried to teach us that with this book. I also liked the book very much because of the torture and the details of how it felt. It made me understand the emotion that the MC experienced. It felt very raw and real.
What I didn't like was the fact that these people are supposed to be witches but don't seem to have any real power(like no magic and cool shits ya know?) If the author didn't mention that they were witches, I'd think they would be just normal humans. What also bothered me a little was the fact that not a lot of events happened within the book. The plot was too focused on the "training" that nothing was really going on. The ending was rushed and quite easy to guess.

All that to say that the book is different but don't expect something like : OMG ITS FCKIN AMAZING 'cause it's not.

84-Theft of Swords

10/8/2015

Book 1: AMAZING! (5 stars)
I absolutely LOVED Hadian and Royce. Their connection was electric. They made weird-ass jokes and they felt like real bros. I think that it's also about the way that they seem to make the impossible possible. It's a little crazy and it leaves you in awe when you read the kind of stuff that these two do. All the characters were very different and we never knew their motives so the book left you guessing as you read without making it predictable. Plot was never boring and kept on rolling. ( I would give you a summary, but there were so many subplots that it would take forever). Writing was smooth and the descriptions didn't feel that long. It was SO MUCH FUN...so I decided to read on to the second book...

Book 2: The fuck happened here? (3 stars)
Summary: Hadian and Royce help Thrace track down and kill a Gylabrwyn (what ever his name is) that lives in a tower and is slowly killing everyone in the village. I'll let you figurre out how that ends...

Gave it three stars because there were still things that you didn't know about the character so you kept learning about them all the time. What didnt like though was the fact that book 2's plot was WAY TOO SIMPLE. Where are the secrets, the mystery and the fun? It pretty much all went into the first book and left the second book very dull and uneventfull.

83-The Testing

4/8/2015

The Seven Stages War left much of the planet a charred wasteland. The future belongs to the next generation’s chosen few who must rebuild it. But to enter this elite group, candidates must first pass The Testing—their one chance at a college education and a rewarding career.

Cia Vale is honored to be chosen as a Testing candidate; eager to prove her worthiness as a University student and future leader of the United Commonwealth. But on the eve of her departure, her father’s advice hints at a darker side to her upcoming studies--trust no one. Absolutely incredible and what's weird is that

I've never heard about his book. I just picked it up randomly in the library and voila! But seriously. This was SOOO GOOOD. It's a lot better than hunger games. It has more action, *a lot* more violence, more interesting tests.

I really loved how the author showed to us that the characters were intelligent even though she never once mentioned the word "smart" in their description. I also really liked it because none of the characters in the book are Mary Sues and Gary Stus. They all have their faults and are all different in their own way. At the end of the novel, I didn't even know what to think anymore. Who was good, who was bad?...it just leaves you thinking, just the way a good book is supposed to be.

Other than that, can't really find anything negative about this book, hence the five stars...

Definitely recommend to those how liked Divergent or Hunger Games. (It's kind of like a good mix of both.)

82-The Girl of Fire and Thorns

14/7/2015

~~~CONTAINS SPOILERS~~~

Elisa is set up in an arranged marriage with King Alejandro. The maid kidnaps her because she has a magical stone stuck on her navel( I'm not even gonna). The maid explains to her the problem about the war happening. She accepts to help. When it's done, she comes back to Alejandro, but he dies in battle.The End.

Honestly, what can I even say about this book other than the fact that the book seemed SUPER RELIGIOUS to me."God wanted this to happen."" Why did He chose me?"" Why did he give all the gems to the enemy." Well, why don't you try to figure it out yourself instead of reading your religious book to find the answer? It's just that I don't feel like Elisa DID anything spectacular ON HER OWN. Like seriously. Without the magical stone and her version of the "Bible", the girl would be worthless.

Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against stones. Stone are fine, original even. But the fact that the WHOLE FCKIN BOOK RELIES ON A FCKIN STONE TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM is absolutely ludicrous.

And don't even get me started on how the author kept saying that the girl is fat. WE GET IT. SHE'S FAT. MOVE ON. Omg and Elisa kept comparing herself with her sister over and over again, I was absolutely annoyed.

Actually, the only reason why I found it OK was because Carson killed off some characters and because the author didn't focus the story on the romance. I felt the detachment with Alejandro and I believe that that was exactly how it was supposed to be.

Other than that, it's pretty predictable. I knew that Cosmé was up to something and I truly think that there were other ways to deal with the problem other than kidnapping Elisa. I mean, if you're asking someone for help, please don't be an ass. Overall, it's really not a remarkable book, but many people will like it. It's just not for me.

9/7/2015

Barren only goal in life is to avenge his father that has been killed by his brother.One of the many ways that he came up with was to kidnap his brother's fiancé at their engagement party. At first, he hated her because she accepted to marry a monster but as time flies by, they learnt to understand their motives and the truth about the whole story. But by trying to uncover the truth, a bigger problem appears, they have to find the magical Bloodstone that can make its detainer invincible and destroy it before it falls into the wrong hands.

I didn't really like this book because I found it incredibly cheesy. I mean... "Oh look, since I have nothing to do, let's kidnap someone just for fun. But she's so hot. OMG. Im in looove. " Could you please be any more childish? Like come on dude.
Did anyone else notice that it's this girl's first time on a boat and she happens to never have sea sickness for the whole voyage. She was just so comfortable about it, it didn't seem real to me. I feel like Nixon tried too hard to make us like Larkin by making her appear like a badass. Also," Oh shit, only me and my brother's fiancé can destroy the Bloodstone." doesn't really work for me. Hoho, seems legit.

The numerous coincidences made me feel let down by this book.
If you haven't read lots of books yet then this could be for you. If you're more of an advanced reader, you'll find this incredibly boring.

80-The Wrath and the Dawn

6/7/2015

Well, I guess we can say that I liked it a lot :'3
Watch out. Some crazy ass fangirling will appear soon.

Bound by a curse, the Caliph of Korasan, Khalid, has to marry 100 wives, one per day and kill each of them by dawn. When Shahrazad appears at his door and volunteers, Khalid is intrigued by this mysterious young lady that oozes hatred in her regard. At night, she tells him stories like his mother used to and ends them all with cliffhangers so he would have no choice but to let her live if he wants to know the next part of the story. Physically and mentally worn out by war but still a child at heart, he lets her live. Slowly but surely, they fall in love and he doesn't want to kill her while the curse is starting to have an effect on the city. What will he do? Would you choose love or your people? Or even... Both?

I LOVED THIS SO MUCH OH MAH GOSH. :3
Author managed very well to make the world building seem Middle East-ish by adding all those Arabic words. I was hooked up by the first page and I couldn't let go. Guys, I litterally spent four hours in Chapters reading this book on the ground and ended up buying it when the lady told me they were closing. Shazi is the motherfckin boss. She's so brave and bold and yes, even though she didn't really succeed at her job coz she was supposed to kill him, I DONT EVEN CARE. I SHIP THEM. And Khalid OMG the scene with the rose...<3 *swoon* book boyfriends yo. I also ship them because their relationship is always threatened. Nothing is ever safe with the Caliph. Ouhh dangerous. I like that.
Also, there was just that random ass Tariq that no one cared about. I kind of speed read his parts, but meh STILL LOVED THE BOOK.

So yeah, all I'm saying is that if you have the chance, go read this now. No pressure.

79- Thorn

15/6/2015

When a king asks Alyrra's hand for his son in marriage, she accepts happily knowing that she won't have to live with her cruel brother and bitter mother.
On her way to the other kingdom, she is cornered by her maid that used some magic from an ancient witch to switch their bodies. At first, Alyrra hated the change but slowly, she learnt to cherish the simple life. No princes, no courtly lessons, no dances... But when prince Kestrin(the dude she was to marry) grew suspicious of the fake princess and ends up discovering Alyrra's identity, they have to do all in their power to save each other from darker forces that threaten to destroy them both.

To be honest, the best part in the book was the romance. The book wasn't centered on it and it didn't feel at all instalovy. It was just the perfect amount of cuteness to warm the heart without making it too cheesy.
What I also liked was the fact that Kestrin was actually suspicious about Alyrra's identity yet he let her Iive her life like she wanted too. He didn't torture her or force her to be princess again. Kestrin, you're awesome balls.
The world building was clear for me, and I really loved the subtle magic that filled the book without overdoing it.

If I could change anything about Thorn, I would make Alyrra a little more... Bad-ass? I feel like even though her character was nice, she didn't have the physical action of say Throne of Glass, Graceling or Eona...
It doesn't make the book any less good though .
I liked it. I'll wait for the sequel.

78-The Queen of the Tearling

21/5/2015

Well, it wasn't that terrible.

Kelsea has been hiding for 18 years. Now, she wants her crown back. But many people are willing to kill her to stop her from claiming her rightful place on the throne. With the help of her Mace, Lazaros, and her loyal guards, Kelsea has to prove herself worthy to her people or else, they may all end up facing their early deaths because the Red Queen, the ennemies' sovereign, doesn't like to share her power.

Yes, the world building was poor, the characters weren't exactly the best and the plot was simple, but you know what? I enjoyed it a lot and managed to finish this before A Crown for Cold Silver which I started a while back and still struggling through (although I might have abandoned it). I really loved the Fetch. He is so mysterious and we don't know a lot about him, but we can sense that he will play some special role in the sequels and we know that even though he wants to appear bad, he is indeed quite nice and cares for the people. Awesome guy really.
What I also liked was Kelsea's naiveté and her recklessness. Typical teenage behavior and quite understandable if you ask me. But then you might tell me, "But she was educated by good people, taken care of from a young age and loves to read books...and she's 19. She should know better." Dude, she was isolated from the world during her whole childhood. Her only sources of information from the outside world were from books. I think I would make mistakes too if I was bound to suddenly be the ruler of my country.

What I didn't like was the fact that we don't know anything about this supposedly magical necklace that seems to be the center of attention in this book. Nothing is explained, many questions are left unanswered. What also really bothered me was the fact that Kelsea was like " Oh yeah we're in the year 280 and such. We have kingdoms, long dresses, no paper press, two doctors and we live in a poor society that serves a singular rich kingdom, but my favorite author is Shakespeare and Rowling"...Dude...What? Do you even chronology?

Anyways, let's just hope that the sequel will be better.

77- A Court of Thorns and Roses

21/5/2015

Unpopular opinion time!!!

When her father lost his fortune in some risky investments, Feyre finds herself feeding her family because she's the only one that knows how to hunt. One day, when she kills a Fae and by doing so, breaking the law, another Fae gives her the choice to give up on her life or leave the human world to join the Fae world. Feyre choose to join the Fae world in the house of one of the High Lords and lives there very comfortably. But when darker forces are threatening to destroy the Fae world, will Feyre find a way to save those that nearly enslaved her or will she let them rot to seek revenge?

Seriously, if you ever decide to get this book, then read the first 10%, skip the whole useless filled-with-fluff middle part and jump straight to 68% where the action reallybegins.

To be honest, I only gave the three stars for Lucien and Rhysand. I'm kind of upset to say this but I couldn't care less about Tamlin. He didn't have a deep personality and was just so detached from everything. Most of the time, I just felt like he didn't give two shits about Feyre. I mean, does he really love her? If it weren't for the "curse", he would probably just let her be free and go back to her family, right?

Anyways, reading this book was fine, but I wouldn't go as far as buying it nor would I read it a second time for fun. I feel like most people just give it 5 stars because it's written by Sarah J. Maas. Meh:/

It's a 3 Stars for me

76-An Ember in the Ashes

10/5/2015

" There are two kinds of guilt," I said softly. " The kind that's a burden and the kind that gives you a purpose."

When Laia's brother comes home with a mysterious notebook containing very dangerous information, Martial guards break into their house and kill the whole family with the exception for Laia that ran away. Knowing that they wouldn't kill her brother because they need to know his sources, she hopelessly tries to find the secret organization that her parents used to work in, the Resistance, to help her save her brother. But when they send her on a nearly impossible mission that every spy has failed before, will she find the necessary informations and make it in time before her brother gets executed?

Elias is a Martial soldier. He was planing to desert in order to escape his horrible life filled with torture and violence even though desertion is punishable by death. The day before leaving, an Auger tells him that if he stayed, he would have a chance to be truly free. But first, he has to pass many trials and be a Blood strike (which is like the right hand of the emperor). Will he make it or will fate reserve something even crueler for him?

To be honest, the best part about this book was the violence and the cruelty in it.
It was gory and bloody and wasn't brushed off and painted over with butterflies and rainbows and that, for me, is what made the story feel so much more realistic.

What I also loved was the amazing confusion-proof yet complex wolrld building. The conflicts between the countries were very easy to follow and didn't feel at all info dumpy.

And then there were the characters: all of them different yet all the same. They're fighting through their own battles and that made me reflect on myself a little. We never really know what others are living through don't we? It's only when we get to know them really well that we know that life is shit not just for us, but everyone else too.

I also want to add that the romance is quite... Interesting. It's practically what it is in real life. Two words: messed up. Boy 1 likes Girl1 but Girl1 likes Boy2 and Boy2 actually likes Girl1 too but Girl2 likes Boy2. I didn't really mind it though. It was very entertaining and sweet at moments.

The only real problem to me was the number of coincidences. Why does Laia always appear when Elias is there? Why do they always stumble upon each other? Once is fine, but more than that is a no for me.

Other than that, I liked it a lot. Definitely recommend.

75- Under the Never Sky

2/5/2015

After having this book being recommended to me by Goodreads like a kajillion times, I have finally decided to pick this up. What I can tell you is that it's definitely entertaining, but it's not a good book in terms of content.

Brief summary: When Aria is almost raped by Soren, his father makes her "disappear" by throwing her off a plane into the Real Word. Nearly dying, she tries to find some people that would help her get back to her old life. Perry, recognizing the girl from his nightly raids, asks her to help him save his nephew in exchange of him helping her getting back to her mother in the other Realm. Yes, you guessed it right. They fall in love and typical YA stuffs happen about here.

A couple of things bothered me...

World-building was the most cryptic shit ever. Nothing was explained. We don't know anything about the time period or why the society is like that. It just is. Deal with it.

Also, the number of coincidences in this book baffles me. THEY ARE EVERYWHERE. EVERYfuckinWHERE!

Take note of this too : Authors should stop putting poisoned berries in their books. Please, find something else more original.

Hmmm other than that, I thought that the love story was cute. A little instalovy, but quite believable. It was slow and took some time to develop. Oh, and Perry is life because he's a little cutie pie.

What I also liked were the numerous twists. I actually found myself being like " Damn, didn't expect that" more than once. The writing was not too shabby and I think that even though the idea isn't exactly original, Rossi wrote it in a way that made it differ from many YA books by the relations between different characters and by giving them some super powers without making them sound extraordinary and overdone.

I think I would've enjoyed it more if countless questions weren't left unanswered. Other than that, it was quite fun to read

74-The Nightingale

22/4/2015

Writing a book about war is hard. However, if you can pull it off as well as Kristin Hannah, then it's absolutely beautiful.

In 1939, young men from the ages of 18-25 left their kids and wives behind to face the Nazis at their front door.

Vianne says goodbye to her husband as he leaves for war. Before his departure, he gave her some money to take care of their daughter Sophie. As the years fly by, all the money is gone and the food is extremely scarce. When a Nazi soldier randomly appears at their front door announcing that France is now occupied and that he will be staying in their homes to spy on them, Vianne would do just about anything to protect her sister, Isabelle, who's a member of a secret resistance group and keep her daughter away from harm even if it means losing a big part of herself

Ok, so why is this book so great?
It's great because it makes you want to have a double personality. You longed to be Vianne because you wanted security, to lay low, to not cause any problems in order to keep your family safe, but at the same time, you wanted to be Isabelle, the rebellious girl that saves lives of many, denouncing the injustice that the Nazis were inflicting on people, protecting the innocent... And that, for me, is absolutely amazing.

Furthermore, the writing was so lyrical and so damn beautiful. I am in love with it. So many feels.

I think that many times, when we talk about WWII, it's always about the Jews and the concentration camps, but never about the other people from the other countries that suffered also. Therefore, it was really refreshing to see it for a change. It makes the books stand out and that's a very good thing when you're an author.

If you were disappointed with All the Light We Cannot See, then I promise you that this one will make you feel a lot better. Definitely recommend. You won't regret it.

DNF 33%
I can't do this anymore. Reading the everyday life of a handicapped snail would be faster than this. Hell, even reading The Lies of Locke Lamora would be faster than this shit.

Summary: When Zosia's whole village is murdered by Captain Hjortt and his team, she kills them singlehandedly and runs away to seek revenge. But Zosia's isn't the strong and powerful lady she was twenty years ago. During those years, she has married and abdicated her place on the throne and stopped her training. Although now, she's old and her friends are all scattered around the globe, she is still determined to find them again to hunt down those who sent Captain Hjortt and kill them to bring justice to those who died in the massacre.

Ok. On to the problems...

For starters, you can't just present to us a character in the beginning of the story, not talk about him for a third of the book and then randomly shove him back in like nothing happenned. Like dude, is that supposed to make me care about him? Because I don't.

Then, there's the writing and the plot. Absolutely horrible. Both of them. The story's so slow and boring there was nothing going on by 20%. I skimmed through the rest in the hopes that something big will come up, but that just didn't happen. The writing is one of the most monotonous ones that I've read in my life. We know very little about the world. The characters are way too simple for me.

Nah. Stay away from this book. It will leave you disappointed.
