This book was not at all what I expected, but that's not a bad thing. I did really enjoy the book, but I felt a little distanced from the story and characters because so much of the book was narration, pretty light on live scenes.I would have liked a little more detail at the end. Throughout the story, the author sprinkled sensual and sexual details, but nothing really when it came to the love of the MC's life. It wouldn't require a blow-by-blow (sorry...) account of the consummation of that love, but something. There wasn't really even a reference to it.I understand that there might be numerous reasons for that -- finally, a part of JJ's life that remains unseen, on the backside of the camera, I get it, but after the details of Dick's conquests, I felt a little cheated to not get a tiny glimpse of JJ's passions sated. The poor guy went years and years with nothing, and regardless of how things turned out for him, I still had the feeling he got nothing. Left me feeling like something was seriously missing.Would I recommend this book? Absolutely. It was highly entertaining with complex characters, themes, and crazy situations. The duplicity kept my jaw dropping and head spinning. I would have loved to know what happened to Dick when he left that office, but understand why it wasn't part of the story. Guess I'll just have to use my imagination.
