Review: Unbelievably slow and boring
Rating: 1 out of 5

For at least 70% of the book there is nothing significant happening. I think that at least 25% of the beginning describes the march to the keep. It's was so incredibly boring , that I only kept reading, because it was supposed to get more interesting after a slow start.The one significant thing that happens in the book is the battle, after which the last 10% of the book are 2 extremely long drawn-out epilogue chapters.Most of the slow start is filled out with the main character internal struggle and inability to understand boys. At some points she seems to be acting like a silly spoiled child, although this is not really explainable as we are highly hinted that for some time already things are not going that well for her to develop such spoiled attitude.All in all it seems like a blown out of proportion short story/ novel than a first book of new series. I am expecting more from a first book in new series than just a lot of pages. I'm expecting something significant that will happen, especially when the book comes out along with a prequel!Because I didn't either find the story or characters interesting, and can't in fact find a single thing to recommend this book for - I can't honestly give it more than a 1 star.
