Hmm, I gotta say, I'm a little disappointed. I had pretty high expectations for this book because I've heard great things about it. I've owned this book for a few years and decided to finally read this today.
And, look, the art is gorgeous. The artist is INCREDIBLY talented, which is why I'm giving 3 stars instead of lower.
But the story... it just felt really meh. It wasn't very interesting. It was somehow all over the place and nothing happening at the same time. There were details about other characters that were never mentioned again. And it felt a bit repetitive. I can't say I enjoyed it or the characters.
