  • Plot- or character-driven? Character

  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

3.0

 Not one of the greatest books of all time (I do remember trying to read this book after TATBILB came out and absolutely hating it), but enjoyable after watching and adoring the amazon prime series! I think if I read this book, I would have found Belly insufferable, but Lola Tung's voice in the audiobook (the actress who plays Belly in the show) made it ok.

Questionable elements? Yes. However it was a fun little read and I am going to read the whole trilogy even just to hear Christopher Briney's voice in the last audiobook ;)
