    Im so sorry... But i dont like the way this book is written. Its boring. Too many adjectives too many words surrounding one thing. It could ve all been said a little shorter - i dont mean without all the flashbacks or acronyms but not that many omg.

    I like the story - its poverfull. But i have to force my self not to skip a paragraph about nothing ... Flower rendering it self in sunlight, sunlight merely striking the flower is it a chrisantene i remember from a long long time ago i opened a botanical book i a biology class where the teacher played us movies.... The flower was maybe chamomile... ... I guess you see where im going woth this

    For example when she was describing her breakfeast eggs before the birthing ceremony - great! I liked that. Felt like there was something to give to the story, to tell us more about Offreds thinking - but one chapter over and there are numerous (sorry to say this word) useles paragraphs.

    I thought i could finish it today.. But im not reading two pages about some flowers omg...

    When i was jokingly posting a made up paragraph about flowers i didnt really think that there would really be two full long paragraphs about flowers...
