Lady Midnight

There's a lot going on here. The book starts with a kid who then only shows up twice more, and is 99% irrelevant to the story being told. There is a bit with a poem by Poe that seems to just be there ‘cuz it's fun to have real world connections. The main pair are internally inconsistent with their own supposed characters. But the world is so WIDE. There's a lot of story to be told here, and a lot of mysteries to unravel. It's kind of disappointing because it could be amazing instead of just meh.
