This definitely isn't a book for me. The more I read the more convinced I become that I'll hate it if I finish reading it. So, it's better I stop now while I still think there are some redeeming qualities—namely the writing even if it is all about telling—in this painful novel. Part of me understand...
After finishing this book I had to reflect on what I wish to rate it. I decided on 4/5 stars, merely because it had a lasting effect on my mind and emotions. If a book can linger in my mind, that's HUGE points for me. Now I do have some criticism for the story, but not too much. I felt that several ...

There are people out there who try to deconstruct jokes to see what makes them funny, and comedians often argue that it's missing the point. I agree with them, but I've done the same thing with this book; I've reread it time and time again trying to see what it is that makes it work so damn well.It ...
I have to say that this book was one of the best books I've read in a while. While it was very emotionally charged, the emotions were perfectly pitched so as to not become over wrought and comical. The author managed to pack in 10 years of living for these characters into a very tightly written pack...
