I know alot of people like this book..but @ the moment I guess I can't really get into it because I think its really boring..I'll probably go back to it over the summer or something.
I STOPPED ON PAGE 30
I wanted to love this. I would say that I liked it, I just wanted...more. I think the potential for some storytelling magic was here, I just didn't find it. I found the under world to be creative and wonderful and even wish some of the “history” presented here was true. Talon was hard to get a read on and because of that I couldn't figure out what he was going to do next-or cheer him on. Lindsey also seemed to have giant disconnect because her family issues were so prevalent. The Champ was, by far, my favorite character. It reminded me of Neverwhere Jr. Worth reading? Yes. I enjoyed Unwind more.
