I tried, I really did, but I just can't seem to get into it. Maybe it is because the writing style of the book. Maybe it is because the main protagonist is a lot older than I am. Or maybe it is because I think I am going into one of my reading slump. But for whatever reason, I think I am going to drop this book for now. I might pick it up a few years later, or when I am in an assassin's mode, but for right now, I am just going to stop and not force myself to read it.
