Title: Slowly unwinding tale proves a solid summer read
Product review: Though their reach often exceeds their grasp, Caldwell and Thomason have written a decent and entertaining first novel. The pace of the story can be frustratingly slow and they awkwardly inserted backstory at the most inopportune times. That said, the actual and imagined history behind the medieval manuscript is fascinating as is the social hierarchy of the Princeton eating clubs. If the authors fail at anything, it is at deciding whether they want to write a mystery/thriller or a campus novel.
