Review: Pretty Good Book
Rating: 3 out of 5

If I could do half stars, I'd give it 3 1/2.  I almost gave up on this book early on - the tone used in describing some torture is rather disturbing (to me it seems to over-objectify the victim).  I also found it hard to follow the plot early on.  There are some strange transitions in the book, almost as if a paragraph or two were cut out - leaving a thought unfinished.  I stuck with it though, and am glad I did - the storyline seemed to fill itself out nicely, and it ended up being a fairly decent read.  The plot line and characters were definitely original, and I give the author kudos for creativity.  In summary, I found that I had to make a little bit of effort to read this book, especially early on, but in the end found it worth it.
