The Thief by Megan Whalen Turner
4.0

I can't even begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this book. It was simple, it was captivating, it was good storytelling and, more importantly, I wasn't constantly banging my head against a wall, frustrated by stupid characters.

Nothing really happened for a good 50% of the book, but it was entertaining nonetheless, mostly due to our snarktastic main character and narrator. And for the rest of the 50%, things were all kinds of whoa

Gen was an honest-to-god delight. But, then again, I could be a tad biased. We all know how much I love snarky, sarcastic characters who don't know when to shut up. It's a weakness I shall do nothing about.

Can't wait to start the next one.
