I really love the book and have read multiple times. Some of the characterisations are spot on, such as Shadwell, Adam and Newton Pulsiver. However why on earth did they change Pepper? She is a ginger haired girl with lots of freckles, hence her nickname. She is also feisty, not the coloured stereotype they decided to write. Also Where on earth did Anathemas back story come from and why was it needed? They got a lot right but some really grating changes that were not needed.
