The last book wasn't great -- but I felt this book did not help at all. Thomas was still as usual, super annoying and I did not like him at all. The whole thing was just a highly irritating book. And while I thought that the last one was decently written, this one was even worse.

The plot, the writing, the characters, all of it was lackluster at best and I could not get into it at all. I skimmed a lot of it.

This is not something I would suggest to anyone to read.

Review to come. I have to admit, this was a little harder to get into than I remember "House of Dies Drear" being, probably because you have to rely quite a bit on reading "House of Dies Drear" to get into the flow of reading this at first. But once I did get into the book, it was smooth sailing, and I was glad to follow Thomas's voice and experiences again. I hope to do a more thorough analysis of the book in my extended review.
