more Everyone seems to be hyped up on this book, but really it was not that good. To tell you the truth it was slightly dissapointing. About 3/4 of the book are tediously boring and pointless. But I must say the ending was pretty good, but still not that great. Some things that peeved me about this book is that the main character Luce is very under developed. Her personality is rather morbid and boring. The book doesn't do her any justice because it never expains her backround with enough depth to know her. Also, I had no connection to Daniel because he seemed boring too. Not only are these things a hinderence to the story, but so are the plot holes left as well. For instance, why does Trever get burned to death? What's the importance of the shadows besides that they gosip? Why does Luce keep dying? Why are both Luce and Daniel damned? Ext ext ext!!! The list goes on. I don't consider this a terrible book just because it was mediocre
, but because it had alot of potential. Hopefully the next one, Torment, will be much better.
