Huge ratings and super positive reviews were the reasons I got this book and decided to read it right away. First 80% was slow, boring and something I had to force myself to continue...instead of closing, deleting and moving on to something else. The one redeeming value during this part of the book was the author's ability to create and manage a principle character with Aspergers, psychosis, two internal personalities, and 10 year old girl to care for and protect from the man chasing them both. When it all comes together in the last 20% the story gets exciting and the read builds promise for the next book in the series. In my estimation, the first part of this book deserved no better than a 1 star rating. The last one-quarter was significantly better...and I raised enough interest in me that I will give Book 2 a chance. Don't really know where it will go and whether or not it will be worth it, but I certainly won't be as patient if the first half isn't any better than Book 1 was.
