How to finish a book you're not particularly fond of? Sit in traffic. That way, you'd have no choice but to flip the pages and read the entire book.

What if you have it in your kindle and you have lots of other books on it? Stick to it like a good friend and finish the damn book.

For the record, I really wanted to like this book. If for one thing, it's cool– Sigils and all, but what other things is it good for? Next to nothing, the cover looks good, this would really fit nice on my shelf.

Did I hate it? Not really.

Will I read it again? Maybe. (Hoping there's a change of approach.)

In retrospect, I dreaded this book; dragged myself into finishing this despite my liking of Sevro.
