Ticker

Please don't judge me, I seriously have no idea why I picked up this book even though my love for the Theatre Illuminata series dwindled down with each volume and plummeted in the last book. This book contains ALL the issues I had with that series, and made me realize that the writing is just not for me.

Maybe because the cover is gorgeous and I'm shallow like that. DON'T JUDGE ME, OKAY.

Aside from the excessive descriptions of dresses and gadgets, there is literally no world-building and little to none character development. It's really difficult to feel any connection to the characters, not to mention I found Penny rather annoying. The transitions are poorly done and make the whole plot really confusing, and in the end I don't think the plot makes any sense.

Nope.
