The description was too much for me. It was a short novel compared to what I am used to reading, but it really felt so long. I think it's because it was dragged with excessive descriptions of every hall, etc. Surprisingly, I still enjoyed it. Despite the verbosity, the story's underlying charm managed to captivate my interest. 

One thing I am certain is that Matthew Rose Sorensen was robbed of his life.
