I really liked Graceling, the first in this series. I found the second one, Fire, pretty good. But this one, I don't even want to finish. After eight days, I stopped at 22% in (chapter 9). 
 Bitterblue's story feels unnecessarily slow, and I can only imagine what a slog the last 78% would be, if the first part seems so plodding to me. I don't much care about any of the characters, and so far Bitterblue lacks a definitive personality beyond curious and troubled. 
 No rating, since I didn't get very far, though it was leaning just under two stars. I wanted to like this, because of the other two books. But it's just not for me. Moving on!
