As the book cover states (and I'm paraphrasing here), this is a book for book readers. You can't help but appreciate the art of storytelling in this books,as it is done so well here. The story within the story were eventually connected, and both are equally interesting and I couldn't wait to find out what happens. I felt like at times certain aspects of the story were a bit reminiscent of Brideshead Revisited and there was a fantastic plot twist that I was just not expecting. If the book wasn't so massive, I probably would have re-read it with the twist in mind to see how my understanding of the story changed. This is an incredibly satisfying book with traditional storytelling elements. I don't even want to review it more, expect to tell you to just go and read it!
5 bookworms!
