I think, each time I picked up this book, I couldn't really find anything that was drawing me back to it. The story itself doesn't have a cohesive flow, appearing more like vignettes than a single narrative. The chapters are so fast paced that I feel like we never get a good look at who these characters are or let emotions sink in. There were moments where it was trying to have an impactful punch, but it wasn't set up in a way that lead to an emotionally satisfying ending. This feels like it would make a better manga than a prose narrative and, seeing that there is such a thing for this series, I may give that a shot instead of the books.
