This happened to me with the public library. There are so many books here! How can I not find one I like?! I'd read all their Neal Shusterman books (my favorite author) and stories that were similar. But beyond those all I've found are books with POTENTIAL. I would read this if this was a bit different kinda thing. Has anyone read the book "Bitterblue"? Good lord I loved that world. The characters were awesome and the magic of the world was amazing. But it was too dragged out for my liking. They described what felt like everything in specific detail and it was taking too long for anything to happen. Ten chapters in and I wasn't sure what the main problem was. I had to put it down but it was with much sadness. Maybe one day I'll go back to it but for now I'm still searching.
