It's disappointing when you've had high hopes from the beginning.

I read them to gather interest in a book, but lately I've been trying to avoid rereading when I finally have that book in my hands, because I hate when I'm expecting MORE to happen but the entire plot has already been explained. Anyway, sorry to hear this fell short of your expectations! I'm glad it was compelling enough to read in one sitting, but I definitely understand the disappointment that it wasn't a 'linger in my mind because it's so goddamn awesome' type read. Interested to see how I'll feel about it!
