Title: Unpleasant main character
Review: A friend gave me this book to read, and that's the only reason I'm still reading it. About 130 pages in, I continually find myself thinking how much I dislike Rebecca--she seems to be wallowing in various sorrows, full of self-pity, arrogant, self-absorbed and far too focused on high-end fashion.The murder hasn't engaged me, and the title device, God's autobiography, has yet to show up. I enjoy the rare appearances of the dead Polish congregation, but they're few and far between so far.I have always had difficulty enjoying books in which there's no character I can relate to, and this is one of those.I will probably finish it for my friend's sake, but I can't help but regret the time I've spent on this book so far.
