3.0

The main problem with this book is that, by virtue of the fact that it IS a book, the inevitable conclusion of the book is very obvious but there's no reason for the characters to know that they are, in fact, in a book and that disparate plot elements must come together a certain way.
Which kind of got in the way of enjoying the progression because I kept thinking "did they notice the thing that the narrator is careful to point out to me?"
But the world and characters were definitely worth spending time with and on and I was glad for having read it even if the plot is definitely the weakest part of the story.
