perfection. absolutely deliciously, exquisitely written book. even if its just a translation it still holds the flavour and the beauty. reading it inspired ME to continue writing MY book, which i half-abandoned. such power it holds. i also read 800 pages in like 10 days, which has never happened before in my entire life. and the fact that i know it just gets better and better. amazing, brilliant, scrumptious. out of this world.
