Despite tempering my expectations of this book based on suggestions, I'm still rather enjoying it. The prose has that perfect execution of "flowery, verbose wit" that I think is really fun to read. The humor can be subtle, which I find very refreshing and a rare thing to find in today's humor books.

I've been wanting something lighthearted and fun to read, so starting reading this. It's been on my shelf for ages. I hear nothing but the utmost praise for this series, but always been hesitant because it was so overhyped for me, was worried that my expectations had been made too unfairly high. But decided that life is too short to hesitate all the time!
