I loved reading this! It was a throw back to the past with many delightful details added. The last chunk ... I skimmed it, it was not for me.

One of those rare occasions where the movie is significantly better. It’s fun, but it feels like a bloated draft of the movie script most of the time. And my edition comes with a forward and afterwards of sorts which are both incredibly enjoyable and make me dislike the author as a person.

Just a truly unique and refreshing reading experience. I’ve never read anything like it before. Literally sometimes impossible to tell fiction from reflection.
