I loved this book! The writing was witty and engaging, the story was amazing, and all of the characters have found a special place in my heart. Even as someone who isn't big into romance, I found this book to be fun and interesting, and I definitely recommend it to everyone.

I'm not the biggest fan of memoirs, but I enjoyed this book. I love anything that has to with Latin or other dead languages, and this book delivered not only a pleasant story, but a nice dose of Latin and grammar mixed in. A must-read if you're interested in any of those things.

This is a really cute book. I've been meaning to read it for a little while, and I'm glad I finally got around to it! I really enjoyed it, and I'm hoping the movie is as good as the book.

I really, really enjoyed this book. It was an amazing read, with exceptional characters, some amazing worldbuilding, and flawless emotional undertones. I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone and everyone, and then some. My only final comment is that I would imagine that it is pretty trigger-heavy, so keep that in mind if reading.

I really enjoyed this book. The ending kind of threw me for a loop, but other than that, i found it easy to follow but complex enough to keep me reading. Definitely a must-read for fans of The Handmaid's Tale.

I had to read this book for my freshman English class. It gets a rating of 2.5 because I am completely neutral on it. It didn't change me as a person, for better or worse, and to me, it's just another "classic." I guess... read it if you want to, but I'm not really recommending it to anyone.

I've been a fan of WTNV for years now, and I've been meaning to read this book for almost as long. I'm so glad I finally did. The characters are amazing, the plot is solid, and this book gives an awesome look inside the Night Vale universe. If you are a fan of the podcast, or simply anything weird, strange, or fun, I highly recommend this book.

This is a series I've been meaning to read for years. Having finally read it, it's a cute book. It's pretty run-of-the-mill for a children's book, but I enjoyed it, and I would probably recommend it to my younger siblings. I am undecided whether or not I'll read the rest.
