Advantages: Easy-read, keeps your interest Disadvantages: Characters a bit too fairy-tale (review will explain), goes for quantity, not quality, disappointing ending
Having spent an unjustified number of months on the last novel, I was looking for a book I would get through a little quicker this time! I now feel the need to take a book with me wherever I go, and hence I did not waste too much time fussing over what to go for, but went for this book (one I had bought as part of a box series) because I thought the cover looked nice.
