This book and me have a love, hate relationship. While I like the concept of the book and the writing, the execution could've been done without being over 600 pages long.
There was so much of the same thing over and over that it was massively repetitive. Must of the middle of this book could've been summed down to a few chapters of Paige doing whatever she wants and Misha being a robot and a controlfreak. Sprinkle in some unfortunate scenes, they reflect on everything, they both see the error of their ways and then they lived Happily Ever After!
But we don't get that.
We just get the same argument over and over again. The same excuses. The same robot Misha no matter the situation. The same Paige doing whatever she wants despite someone trying to kill her! The same thing over and over until it has been beaten, bled, burned and revived just to do it all over again.
This could have been so much if it had been shorter. And that means something coming from me since I love long books because the pacing is better and I feel like the flow of the story is better. But this was not it.
