Book Review ( blended tea all my thoughts mushed)

Nexis by A.L. Davroe

This book was extremely hard to get into I have never spent this much time on a YA book before it took
me three and a half weeks to read this because the beginning is like trudging through mud the pacing in 
the beginning is oh so painfully slow in my opinion and it took me so long to get into this I really got 
immersed into the story by 35%. I feel like the pacing of the plot is so off and unevenly distributed 
throughout the story the beginning was slow as molasses the middle was the perfect pace and the ending 
was so fast I got whiplash. These are all varying degrees of plot pace that would have done the story so 
much justice to be leveled out . Moving on, I loved the virtual reality game. To me this idea was so inventive and unique to see and I loved the idea of it and I thought it was so cool I found myself wishing it
was real. The romance was moving too fast at first but then I grew to enjoy it and respect it for how and 
what it was. I didn't feel any emotional connection or attachment to any of the characters i enjoyed Guster 
and Ellani for the most part. Speaking of Ellani she was okay but she annoyed me to no end sometimes 
with the things she would say and her actions. The sci fi elements I wish were explained better it was very 
info dumpy as for the world it was interesting and we had a clear depiction but not really a clear basis for
it . The writing style in the beginning helped aid in how slow the pacing was somehow and helped give 
me the reading slump I had because yes when I started this book it put me in a reading slump. Toward 
the middle and end the writing along with the plot became more captivating and enjoyable. 
Overall, I only reccomend this to those who like Science fiction which was why I picked it up otherwise I
wouldn't reccomend it because of how slow the start was and how mediocre it was as a whole to me but I 
did find some enjoyment in it.
