It is 4:13am. I read this book in one sitting. I paused for toilet breaks and to make drinks. That was all.

I feel I was harsh in my judgement of the end of Pantomime; I'd like to add that extra star! Lam continued from a dramatic ending of the first book so well that it's slight ridiculousness no longer matters. Shadowplay was full of surprises throughout and there was never a page that bored me. The ending chapters have left me craving the next book more than I can say and the day the book drops through my letterbox after preordering will be a very happy day. I so wish I could pick it up and read it now, as I would continue it immediately without sleep until the final page. This series has my heart, I'm in love.
