Although this book is not the biggest I have ever read, I can’t help but feel proud of myself for finishing this gigantic 830 paged beauty! Despite the high ratings and attention this book received, I was not completely sold by its premise before I started reading it. So colour me surprised, when I found myself completely enthralled just a few pages into this book.

CLOUD ATLAS by David Mitchell

NEVERNIGHT by Jay Kristoff
I stopped reading this book just under halfway. Personally, I am surprised that I even got that far.
I really tried to finish this book mainly because I paid full price for a new copy from Amazon. Sadly, after avoiding eye contact with it for more than a week, I decided to call it quits and pick up another book.
