I grew up reading books like The Babysitter Club and The Boxcar Kids. Now I read Romance, Young Adult, New Adult, Paranormal, Urban Fantasy, Dystopian and any mixture of these all depending on what my mood is. I love Stephen King, Michael Connolly, JRR Tolkien, CS Lewis, Jane Austen, JK Rowling, Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs and many others.
                  
                                    
                                       I really couldn't get into this story.  The story itself was just alright for me, but it was the writing style that really turned me off.  Jumping scenes for back story broke up the flow of the narration.  I felt like the author put too much detail into the back story than what would have really been necessary to get the idea.  For others, this might be appealing, to get the whole story.  For me, I just didn't like it.
