I wanted to give this book more stars, because the writing and premise were good. But it was unnecessarily long and the ending was very anticlimactic. I just expected more.

Long time, no see. Getting back into writing and being active on sites I love. I have a lot of anxiety about all of it. Time to take the plunge.
