This really was an amazing book. I'm not intimidated by book length, but I bought this book and put off reading it due to the length thinking that there were sooooo many other books I wanted to read. 800+ pages isn't a ton, but it often takes more than the few days I dedicate to each book. Somehow, I always feel that books that take a week or so read aren't worth it because it takes away time from my reading other books (you know, so many books, so little time!). However, I did start it one Saturday thinking that I was interested in the story. It was amazing! I couldn't put it down and it did only take a few days because I was so interested. The story moves at such a fast pace, that it feels as though you'll miss something exciting if you stop reading. It reminded me greatly of The DaVinci Code.
