UGH

It started out soooo dreadful, I honestly could not get into it and I felt like I was nitpicking every little thing... So, I decided to sit down and get comfortable to really give it a go.
When I ignored the small details and went with the story, I was honestly getting into it; I wanted to know how it ended and the mystery. Did I end up skipping a few pages? Oh, yes. I really dislike the main character– he is kinda a dick. Playing two girls at a time, making them jealous, no notice of quitting (thankfully stays on), acting like the victim when he is the one hurting the girl(s) he likes– I am over him. Mary deserves so much better.

Kinda sucks because I like all of the side characters ALL OF THEM and I like the plot. I just don't like the main character or the writing style. Even if something is fantasy I need it to seem believable and true– but I never got that feeling here. This would probably make a good movie though.

In the end, I like the plot. I might read summaries of the next books in the series to see what happens, but I definitely won't read them.
