The Book That Wouldn't Burn by Mark Lawrence
4.5
(Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
Okay so I was about 70% through when I started recommending this book to others. I was like, "so it's about this magical library..." This seems like a dream for me, except one person's paradise is another person's trap. What I appreciate is that Lawrence has committed to this idea of a timey wimey unending library. Told through the eyes of a few characters, The Book That Wouldn't Burn is about potential, cleverness, and the power of knowledge.
