daltonreads's review against another edition

4.0

Actually a shame that this would be 5 stars only if the difference between a character's thoughts and the dialogue they say out loud wasn't the different between a quotation mark and a speech mark, because i cannot understand what's happening quickly enough for the writing to flow like it should.

So, yeah, it would benefit from some italics or at least some line breaks, but if they allowed half stars on goodreads then it would still be 4.5
