The Library at Mount Char

This book is every bit as strange and weird as I wanted it to be without ever feeling like it was bizarre simply for the sake of being bizarre. The story flows well and the pacing is fantastic. Even when you think you know exactly what's going to happen in a given situation, there's a slight turn. It's not twisty and turny to the point that you feel like the author was deliberately misleading you though. It was never obscure in a way the compromised my comprehension (a problem I find with a lot of fiction similar to this). I had a general feel for the overarching plot pretty quickly, and, though I guessed some of what was to come, I felt like the journey was totally worth it and delivered much more than I predicted.

This is definitely a book I will reread in the future, but I wouldn't recommend it for everyone.
