I was very disappointed in this book. I was really hoping for a true fantasy, but its very much magical realism. I feel like there was a lack of description in some places because I found myself going back to see what was going on-and while I found where it should be I still couldn't find it. The ending was anticlimactic. I also found that while Louis was well developed, the other characters weren't as much.
