I read the first third of this book physically but then switched to audiobook for the rest.
I did enjoy this book, it's super whimsical and fairly witty at times. It's also weird while still being cute.
The part I found most interesting were the brothers of Stronghold and how their ghosts spoke and watched on after their deaths. I wish I could maybe have a whole book drawing that lore out.
However the ending really kind of knocked this down for me. I just felt like nothing really happened.
I look forward to seeing the movie as some say it's a little bit different, but I just don't see myself re-reading this book again or really thinking about it long after hence the just 3 star rating.
