the thriteeth tale...

gan gave me this book for my 25th birthday and i can FINALLY say that i read it and enjoyed literally EVERY PAGE. the language is rich and the story is intriguing, the character development is deep and the underlying tones of mystery amidst compassion compelled me to keep reading just one more chapter. it is written as a story within a story which is a personal favorite literary device and i really just couldn't get enough. i don't know what my all-time favorite books are - but this definitely ranks up there! it is a worth-while read!
