I enjoy fantasy, time travel, paranormal, historical, etc books...so this should be my cup of tea.
It's certainly not a book for everyone, but one of my favorites. Reading it is like driving the scenic route, stopping at every turn out and antique store along the way. Don't worry about reaching your destination, just enjoy the drive.
