I was less than halfway and almost gave up but was encouraged to continue. The second half was definitely much better but here is my beef. The author is great at displaying quirks and interesting insights into people; almost too clever. There are too many times where the story spins it's web of cute little descriptions of people, places, modern customs, mores and those weird things that people do. But it does not always help the story, it just seems to be a vehicle for the author to show what great insight she has into other people. But I want 'story'.As for the story, it builds slowly but it was a bit obvious where it was going, toward a big &#34;twist&#34;. of course the second half was twisted again, multiple times. I cannot say I knew exactly how it would turn out, but it was tightly wound around a very few possibilities.Finally, and this is truly just a personal choice, I like to see some characters with some redeeming features. This story truly had no character that I would want to know personally. There was no one likable, not even remotely. I like a story where I can identify the hero and relate in some way.So I was a bit disappointed but it was certainly a clever story with great insights into the ways of our world, in some ways that are not very flattering.
