did not like it
bookshelves: steampunk

This is not a self-published book. I think I need to keep reminding myself of the fact, because honestly, it felt like one. I thought that the characterization was just terrible, the plot was uninteresting and inconsistently paced and utterly predictable. None of the characters was actually likable, which sometimes can work in a book, but not when it's clear that the author intended that I should like at least a few of them.

I picked this up because I love me some steampunk and I kept reading because at various intervals I thought that the author might do something different and interesting and I just had to be patient. Well, no, the author did not and I feel like I wasted my time reading this young adult-esque drivel. The End.
