I really wanted to love this book, and for a while, I did. Sadly, it is just...way way way too long. It is badly in need of editing and focus, as it is trying to do too many things at one time. The book is 623 pages, and there's a really good 400 page book in there somewhere, but it is at least 200 pages too long and complicated. I loved the charming narrative style, and many of the characters; but it's a mess. The author needed to cut out at least 1 storyline and several characters. The origin story of the curse held so much promise but... blah? Like, it didn't even really make enough sense and comes so late in the story.
