Honestly surprised that I finished it. The book was tedious and I just never got into the mystique of maps.

I hate when authors think their readers aren’t smart enough to figure out what’s going on.

It started out slow. Then picked up and I loved the unfolding of the mystery in the middle. I’m still not quite sure what happened at the end.

I stayed up late last night finishing this. While excellent, I didn't enjoy it as much as The Book of M. I figured out a lot of the mystery very quickly and I think that ruined it a bit. Still totally worth a read.

meh. 
i wasn't expecting it to be so scary (i scare very easely) and I didn't appreciate it. I coudn't really conect with the characters and the ending or solution just kinda confuses me. But it wasn't to bad.
