I LOVE the concept of this book (I mean what reader doesn't fantasize about pulling objects and characters out of their favorite stories?!?) but I expected so much MORE. With the entire history of literature at its disposal this book barely glimpsed the surface. I understand the focus on Victorian literature, that didn't bother me, in fact it actually made me want to put down the book and pick up some Dickens. But if you're not going to use the literary characters to your advantage at least make the main character REMOTELY interesting. I really wish Rob got eaten by the dragon or at least Lydia dumped his ass in the end. He is a million times more repulsive then Uriah Heep.
