This was so fun, the fact that the author is revolving the whole book around a bad review of a play he really did is so smart. At first it did feel a bit slow for me, but I think that's my own fault, because I'm not used to reading these types of books. At the end everything went more smoothly and it resolved beautifully. I do have to add I haven't read the previous books, but I don't feel like it really mattered, I feel I had all the information I needed to understand the book.
