Immediately confusing.

I’m only a few hours into the book and it looks like there are two main POV’s, several side character POV’s, and two time periods to keep track of. The prologue was very unusual and mostly unnecessary.

There’s absolutely no reason to bounce around in a story this often. Is the book a giant flashback or are you trying to tell an evolving story…because you can’t do both. Half of the book is about the past. Why wouldn’t you just write the past and then write the present after? This style of writing serves no purpose and makes it difficult to stay interested.

The characters so far are completely one dimensional and are not compelling enough to keep me interested.

The premise of the book is cool enough and the narrator isn’t terrible but I was let down by the quality of the writing.
