I found it very difficult to get involved in the story, but as I plodded on, it became more engaging. Mr. Monti is that the protagonist is so caught up in making what she thinks are cute and sarcastic remarks that the story gets bogged down in her self-indulgence. Granted, some of her asides are clever and witty, but they distract form the movement of the plot. For questions or comments about a review, please contact the person listed at the top of the review.
