This book made me realize I've been reading just to count books, not always for the stories. This was such a beautiful exploration in world building and cultural differences. Forget every other fictional destination, I just wanna be in the Fishbowl. The characters are all so fully developed, I can barely pick a favorite (Dr. Chef is up there, though). I cannot wait to get my hands on the rest of the series, hopefully before the 4th one comes out in April.
