Even when I was irritated by her at the beginning, I still thought she was hilarious and interesting.<br /><br />Glad you liked all of the characters.

I actually rather liked AGATB (ish, had some problems) so I'm interested in this one. That excerpt you shared had me howling.

I think that his impact will probably make more sense in the next book, but my mind started to wander during those scenes. And no OTHER review that I read remarked upon this and I thought it was just me, so thank you for that!<br /><br />Great review and I am glad you enjoyed it!Kara_Malinczakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559498182018910285noreply@blogger.com
