Things I liked:
- This book is very eloquently written. I literally enjoyed the words used. It was poetic.
- It felt like reading two books in one and neither part was boring. It did this incredibly well despite not being a lot book itself.
- There was a lot of ambiguity but it seriously worked in this book. No information dumping!
- I was surprised. Little hints are dropped throughout the book that certain things were happening and it really comes full circle (mostly in the novella portion).
- I found a lot of the characters to be likeable and colourful.
Things I Didn't Like:
- That it ended. I wanted to know more!! Although I suspect knowing too much would take some of the magic and the mystery away from this book. This might be my favourite book of the year.
