I’ve been slow to get through this over the last couple of months and I think it’s because I chose to listen to the audiobook. I usually prefer to read but have enjoyed some audiobooks recently (When the Moon Hatched was so good), but I think for this story I would have kept momentum better if I’d just read it quickly. Trying to get through the last 10% this weekend!
Reading this much slower than I anticipated but enjoying it a lot. I think it’s just what I needed as a break from big plots after rereading 7 throne of glass books over Christmas
