It hurts my feelings so bad that I can’t finish this book, but I just can’t continue. I’m really interested in these characters & I want to know how their story ends, but the pacing of this book is just sooo slow! I’m almost halfway done and barely anything has happened.  The scenes are 30+ pages long because every single thing that’s happening in the scene is described, every single word that could be said is on page, like I don’t need to read ALL of this. I don’t need to see the dust settle on the table and hear the character tell her friend that she has to pee. This really could’ve used more editing. Everything that has happened in the first half of this book could’ve happened in the first 20%. Maybe I’ll just ask a friend how it ends because even though I love these characters, I can’t continue.
