Interesting characters, took too many words to move the plot forward

Be warned, ends with a cliffhanger/definitive build up to a sequel -- which I CANNOT WAIT FOR!

I really enjoyed this one. Goodman did a great job of maintaining the dignity of her characters and keeping to the style of the time while highlighting the atrocities that were occurring. This was simultaneously a fun and a heavy read. It kept me interested and entertained while also making me think.

Way too long for a slight book. Silly, but not humorous

I wish they had paced it a better as the funny story really started to drag.
