This book took me way longer than I expected to read because, honestly, I didn't like most of it. The reason I got it in the first place is because there is a Diane Duane story in it and I liked that one, but most of the others were really a pain to slog through. Usually I stop reading books I dislike that much, but I wanted to actually finish it for some reason. What a waste of time.
