I was excited to read this book; the premise sounds incredibly creative and intriguing. The book itself was an easy read and the writing flowed decently and was easy to follow. However, I was disappointed in how predictable the story was. I was also disappointed in how similar to other YA fantasy books this book is despite the creative premise of time being money.
This is one of those books that I finished and the stared at thinking âwell, nothing much happened there.â There is some intrigue and some magic; but generally speaking the plotline is pretty generic. The heroine is pretty generic as well and didn't really stand out for me. There isn't a lot of action, there isn't a lot of mystery, there just isn't a lot going on in this book.
Overall it was an okay YA fantasy read and it was a quick read. However, given the premise I was disappointed in how very ordinary and predictable this story was. I don't plan on continuing the series.
