Book Review: The Demon's Lexicon

I finished Sarah Rees Brennan's The Demon's Lexicon today. I'm of two minds about the book - I can't decide whether I liked it or not. On the one hand, it's exciting and fast-paced and set in an interesting world; on the other, I loathe the main character, and the writing style leaves something to be desired.

( A more in-depth review. No spoilers )

Bottom line: it's worth reading, although I wouldn't make a point of seeking it out. I'll be interested to see what her next book is - I'm confident that some of the flaws in this book will smooth out once Brennan is more confident in her skills - but she's not on my must-read list of authors by any means.

(If anyone else has read The Demon's Lexicon, I'd love to discuss it with spoilers in the comments.)
