I have read the excerpt and the synopsis. I thought after reading the synopsis I would enjoy reading this book. However, after reading the excerpt this book is not for me it does not pull me in. Nothing bad to say about the book or the author. The book is well written and popular, as I have seen other reviews on good reads, Amazon and thriftbooks, I usually get book from them. This book just does not grab my attention. I wish it did, it sounded interesting before to me. I am new to writing reviews, and with only a chapter read 700 words is hard to write. Parden the repitiveness of this review. Thank you for letting me read an excerpt. I hope that my opinion counts as it is not a bad book just not for me.
