Rating: 3 out of 5

I got this when it was offered as a free book option, which is a good thing because in this economy if I had paid hard earned money for this book I would have been left feeling like I paid far too much, no matter what the price. It isn't any one thing that is wrong with this book, but more a lot of little things. Some characters are extremely well developed while others remain almost strangers through out the story. There are a few different sub plots that jump around with no sense of rhyme or reason, making it hard to keep track of who is where and doing what.  The potential for a really good book was in here, but unfortunately it just never quite came together. Very seldom do I read more than one book at a time because i am usually so engrossed in the story that I hate to put my book down to do whatever needs doing outside of my daily reading time. Sadly with this book I not only was fine with taking breaks from it to do other things, I also ended up reading a book of short stories as I took my breaks from this one... I really wanted so bad to like this book and it's characters... especially Jack (Naomi),and Donna, but unfortunately I never really got into it enough at any point to truly get lost in this world that had been written. It felt like the author made a real effort to convey his vision, which had great potential, but unfortunately it just never quite made it.
