What readers are saying about this book
Summarized by Pango AI
PangoBooks readers have mixed opinions about this book, with some finding the interspersed authorial notes and the added sections that were not in the movie version fascinating and worthwhile. Others enjoyed the fun, adventurous narrative with its clever dialogue and dry humor that plays with traditional fairytale conventions, reminiscent of Douglas Adams or Neil Gaiman & Terry Pratchett. However, a few readers were annoyed by the frequent authorial interruptions, feeling they detracted from the story. Characters like Inigo Montoya and Fezzik were widely praised, providing many laugh-out-loud moments, whereas the portrayal of Buttercup and Westley garnered some criticism for being shallow or overpowered.
