*Sigh* Ok, first of all 
 3 stars in my book means I liked it. I even loved some parts of it. 
 This is the first book of SJM's that I rate less than 5 stars. 
 So why? I think I'm just over it. This series. 
 It might be that my patience is not what it used to be. 
 It might be that I've read the first 4 books back to back so long ago that I found it extremely hard to get back into the story. 
 I did start this book on the release day back in September and I put it on pause 3 times. The beginning was painfully slow. 
 But me senses a pattern. And me is over it. 
 "hi, I'm John. 
 But wait for it. 
 I'm also Steve. 
 But hold on just a minute. 
 I got powers. 
 Stick around for the big reveal now, won't ya? 
 I'm also a long lost ruler of some fuckin' country nobody gives a shit about." 
 I know I don't. I can't even keep track of them anymore.
