I chose this book because I thought the cover looked A-Mazing... and I was in the mood for something somewhat simple after reading such a tension-filled book previously, (Unbroken). It started out as exactly what I was looking for. Not too hard, interesting pictures throughout.... but then the book fell apart for me. I really really wanted to like this book. Unfortunately, the second half of the book lost its whimsy nature for me and became an action type-- not what I wanted. Reviews are somewhat mixed on this book, and I can understand why. It is a great book and a so-so book all rolled into one. It also took me a little under a week to finish, which was longer than I needed to get my book challenge back on track!
So... Did I like it? Sometimes, yes. Would I recommend it? I don't think so... except for the photos. They're really cool. Rating? 2.5 out of 5.
