I’ve wasted enough time reading this book so I refuse to waste any more going into details about how bad it is.
At the very beginning the story was going pretty well, I was even thrilled by its potential but it never delivered, it dragged for TOO MANY PAGES, the time travel felt really redondant, there were moments I had to skim through paragraphs because of all the uncessary descriptions, I couldn’t bear it anymore ! I just wanted to reach the end asap. Seems like bad writing and terrible development is Blake’s signature.
