3.0

A 3 star may be generous. This book felt like a CHORE to finish. Thr first 200 pages and thr last 100 felt like 2 totally different books. At first it felt like it was going no where, and then it was going everywhere all at once. From not enough to all to much.

I think I liked Emily and bambelby (oh what a name) but I liked the townsfolk more. Not that I could remember who was who half the time. 

Shadow and Poe were evidently my favorite characters (and they barely even had rolls). 

The whole tree and king plot? That's when I think I started to truely lose my mind.
