This was a book that I really wanted to like given all the positive media and reviews, but I found it to be slow reading, especially at the beginning of the book.
I have posted my full review of this on my blog, The Itinerant Librarian. Click on the link to read the full review and check it out. My review is a bit mixed. While I liked it (barely), I can certainly see the appeal factors, and I bet other readers out there will enjoy it better. So check it out and decide. If you do, let me know. Comments are open.
