3.5

This is my first reread since the book first came out and time had certainly changed my perspective on the book. It’s not as funny as I remember and I found the plot far more interesting than the subplot (which I remember having preferred last time). The overarching story of the trilogy is obvious, but that doesn’t stop it from being incredibly enjoyable.
The main strength of the series is definitely the characters, they make the book shine where otherwise it would be quite boring.
