review 1: Very tough for me to get interested at first and incredibly depressing, yet the creation of characters and conversations was amazing. Totally believable despite being far from what I've experienced. During the last 3rd of the book I really had a hard time putting it down. Disappointed that the ending dragged a bit. I think the point could have been made more quickly. Still, an intriguing book!
review 2: I really liked this book to the extent that I neglected things I should be doing in order to continue reading itAnd everyone's taste is different. So instead of denigrating those who see it differently than I do (so unnecessary), I can say that I found the plot compelling, the writing better than a lot of "best sellers" and the story to be thought-provoki
... moreng. Pretty good combination, in my mind. less

771 pages. ..could have been 350...could have used an editor. Good start but lost steam 1/4 in.
