This book was so long guys... Not really, it's about 300 pages, but it felt so long. There's a good story in here, this just isn't quite it.
Some things are so over-explained, others aren't explained enough. No one is super interesting, but I still wanted to find out how it worked out, but even that was pretty anticlimactic.
We're given things out of order so we can make connections between things, but then its like “psych! That's not actually connected”. Why have one of the characters weirdly spelled name be almost like another's last name if it doesn't mean anything? Also, lots of weird missing words/letters that I think was supposed to seem conversational?, but just felt weird. I feel like this really needed an editor to tighten up the story.
I will say that I found the whole Lady Midday thing really interesting and I'm interested in more of the Eastern European folklore, and the whole early filmmaking in Canada angle too!, but this was just... meh.
