**UPDATE**
I finished the book and it was okay, enough to move it from a 2-star to a 3-star review instead.
When reading the first read I did enjoy it; I really did. Trying to read this fully I just could not do it. I made it 15% through before I DNF'd it. I wanted to like this, I wanted to at least finish it, but I could not do it. This is definitely the book for someone, but I am just not that person. I can not really describe what it is that made this book not the book for me, but I can tell you that I know it isn't for me. I think I may be a bit too old for the target audience's extra reach. Maybe I will enjoy this book at a later time, so I will be keeping it. I will try again one day, but I think that I will give it quite a bit of time before I try again. Instead of trying to get myself to continuously go back to it right now I went ahead and packed it since we are moving soon. I want to be able to give this book the best chance at truly being enjoyed, and trying to force myself to read it just isn't the way to go.
