So. It's not like I had incredibly high expectations for this book or anything. It's just that I don't think I would've actually finished it had I not been on a four hour flight. 
 It was just so much "oh we can't be together" and then five pages later "oh how can we live without each other". It was exhausting and not even remotely compelling. 
 And okay, the lore is kind of cool. But it's completely overshadowed by obnoxious, unlikeable characters.
