Funny, thrilling and heartwarming. I really liked this one. I randomly decided to read this because of the title. It sounded like a silly idea for a story. Glad I gave it a chance. I didn't feel confused due to it being the third book in the series. I had no idea it was a series before I grabbed it from the library. Going to read the first 2 after this for sure.
Endless descriptions of architecture. It's a short novel that felt like it went on for a lifetime. I was like Piranesi for a while, I couldn't escape the never ending babble of this book. Even speed reading was a slog. I should have stopped when I wasn't enjoying it originally. Definitely not as interesting as I imagined.
Not sure exactly how to rate this one. I really liked the beginning and the end was amazing. But I really didn't enjoy the very long section following Martim. I get why it was in there but it just felt a bit too long. Otherwise a very worthwhile read. I'd rate this closer to 3.75 stars but rounded up.
I liked this less the more I read it. The first ending was ok, made sense. You could speculate that the MC may have committed suicide and was stuck in limbo. Then it turns into a choose your own ending book out of seemingly nowhere. It starts off insulting and condescending to the reader. Such a strange choice. 3 stars up to the first ending. 1 star for everything after that.
This was an emotional rollercoaster. At first I was really enjoying it, found it silly and entertaining. After a while it just gets weighed down with the amount of characters and them simply talking about the cheese moon or the world ending. It goes on endlessly. Speaking of the end, I didn't like it at all. Makes the whole book seem pointless. I really love this authors books, this is the first one of his I didn't like. Felt like I wasted my time reading it honestly.
I have a rule, if I'm not interested within the first 100 pages I will stop reading. Unfortunately this was one of the very few novels I gave up on. Not sure if it gets better but it was too all over the place for me. Deals with the devil, aliens in a donut shop, I just found myself not caring about any of it.
