Again, the plot starts off quite interesting but then it gets really convoluted, with terrible pacing. I wanna read this series but I also hate it

A solid third installement of the Invisible Library series - which seems to improve as the series goes on. The characters are getting better and more interesting, and as usual, the plot is action oriented and shoots forward at breakneck speed. Adventures throughout the Library, imperial Russia, and underground black market and a mysterious secret library abound. There was one scene at the start involving spiders that nearly made me vomit (I really hate spiders...) whilst listening to it lmout cycling.

The Burning Page was an interesting entry in the Invisible Library series. I can't help but wonder what the fallout from the burning page will be and what Alberich meant. As in previous books, Irene's journeys to alternate worlds is more fun than the basic plot line.
