Title: Looked so promising, but...
Review: This is a case of the trailer being far better than the movie. Sounds interesting and I'm even from the Baltimore area this book takes place in. While there are some interesting elements, the clunky dialogue made it almost impossible to finish. Every other paragraph you have to re-read to try and understand. Luckily, I stopped caring and gave up. Worst dialogue I've read in a looong while and I'm a dramatic writing freshman so I've seen a lot of bad dialogue.
