Although it was a bit hard to get into the book, parts 1, 2, and 6 were great. Parts 3-5 felt too rushed and were very difficult to keep up with while listening to it. Those parts felt like so much context was missing and kind of just felt like glimpses into what was happening (it works in movies and shows, I don’t think it works here). I almost stopped reading it altogether during part 3, but I stuck through it because I hoped it would get better. And it did… until I hit part 6. I don’t think I can give it 5 stars, but maybe I can give it 4 stars if I go back and read it instead of listening to it. I don’t think I’m as excited to read the sequel, but based on how this ended, I think (hope) the sequel will be a better read.
