Journal[]
Got it for Christmas 2013 from Darren and co. Started reading it after finishing The Farseer Trilogy at the beginning of 2014.
Finished it on the 25th of January.
I enjoyed it, it was well written, and I liked the final part the most, but I think because I was familiar with the film which was such a faithful and memorable adaptation I didn't get to enjoy the unfolding mystery part of it. Probably deserves a 2 really, but for me this time it was a 1.
