The beginning was really promising to me, I was getting attached to Josten and Silver's stories in particular. Livia's story also seemed to have the potential to draw me in, and I was intrigued to know how the three would eventually intertwine. Unfortunately, I ended up not really liking the direction and tone the book took and ended up losing any attachment I originally had. I don't think I'm going to carry on with the rest of the series.
