Title: The fun ended too early
Review: After Kostova's "The Historian" broke me, I tried to find the lightest, most pointless new fiction around and grabbed this after reading the NYT review. Needless to say I did not have high hopes, so I wasn't too disappointed.The book starts out funny and has some twists and hilarious characters, but halfway through, you find out the big secret. After that, there's really nothing left to tell. The result is a formulaic unfolding of events. At least it's short.
