1.0

This book is 600 pages long. Other than the final 100 pages, this book lacks any coherent plot. It simply describes, in painstaking detail, every single meal Fitz eats over the course of an entire year, while interspersing painfully slow character development. Reading this book should be banned under the Geneva Convention as a form of torture.
