It’s getting better, I like where the plot is moving with colonel Jeffrey and Johanna planning to confront Sweeney Todd. I also really enjoyed the chapter about Mrs. Lovett getting a new worker for her pie shop (spoiler it’s more than just a pie shop)

Getting better. The biggest problem with this book is just being able to find a good reading pace due to the writing style. Nonetheless it is still very interesting and intriguing. Getting to the point where I just need to get er done and finish it. I like how we're getting more insight on Todd and Mrs. Lovett and how some side characters are having actual development.

A lot different than the movie so far but in my opinion that’s a good thing because I’m not spoiled on what’s going to happen. Story is good. I wish we had more insight on Sweeney Todd himself but I believe we’re getting there. A little hard to follow along due to the writing style of the late 1800s. Honestly it’s just hard to stay engaged but I want to get through it.
