Date: 2012-08-23 01:39 am (UTC)It was so sad, because I loved the first half so much, just all of it. The art, the wishes and their consequences, the mystery and the monster's daughter, the prose, the whole world, the FLYING like a badass. And then it was like a completely different book about completely different people, that apparently I'm supposed to care about only because they're in love and it was sad? Blargh. Anyway, your review called up all my sad feelings about this book, which could have so amazing, like shooting right to the top of my favorites list amazing, if it had continued like it started. And instead it was just...okay. :(
