Could Go Places!

I believe that if our narrator slowed down a bit this would hold me more. It's an interesting story but something is getting lost in the read. Slow down and add more emotion and it'll be in hit!

Not a lot of substance

It felt more like an abridged version of a short novel than a work in itself since there was so much detail "missing". In fact, so much was "missing" I had to read through several chapter synopses before I was sure I'd heard all of it.

Pretty disappointing.
