The Pursuit of Happiness

I didn’t really finish the book. I thought it was too detailed. Of course it made the setting more vivid in my imagination but mostly I thought it was unnecessary. I was more interested in the story – which is why I picked up the book in the first place – but the descriptions distracted me from that. I had to skip pages towards the end. I just wanted to get it over with and find out what would happen to Jarred and Lilith.

And BTW, the book’s (Mass Market Paperback edition) regular price was PHP459.00. It’s much too steep.

I actually had the other two books (Hardcover edition) reserved at my favorite local bookstore but I canceled my reservation after reading The Iron Tree’s first chapter. I’ll probably buy the paperback editions eventually but that’s mostly just because I hate leaving things unfinished. I have to find out what happens next!
