Title: Just okay.
Review: The premise is fascinating, but the characters are unpleasant and flat. What could be a terrific story, with elements of suspense, romance, mystery, drama, and comedy, actually comes off as a shoddily pieced together attempt that lacks a real story. The author's attempt at depth and meaning is wimpy and the characters are irritating pseudo-intellectuals with a total lack of common sense. It's impossible to sympathize with either of them. I'd say this might be entertaining, but it is definitely not what some of these reviews make it out to be. Try "The Dive From Clausen's Pier" instead.
