I truly did enjoy my time with this book (if I hadn't, I wouldn't have finished it). It was a nice, light, fast paced read that offers some nice escapism. Every 20 pages or so I found myself saying "That's not how that works" and I was reading on a e-reader -- I'm not talking about the dragon stuff, just the normal function of what is meant to be a mostly normal world threw me off FREQUENTLY.

I'm up in the air about whether or not I'll read the next one, but I would ultimately recommend anyone interested in this read at least the first 10% of the book. If you're having fun, you'll probably enjoy it.
