I'm sure the style won't appeal to every reader, but if you read a few pages into it, I'm sure you'll figure out whether or not it is for you. I'm not all the way finished yet, but I appreciate the detailed, meandering pace of the writing, although sometimes I wish it would get a bit snappy like Harry Potter. I like the way the narrator appreciates natural beauty and kind-of exudes a Zen-like quality. I dislike, sometimes, how many pages are devoted to pondering events or travelling across and between islands.(less)
