Title: A VERY LONG AND SLOW READ!
Review: I'm glad to see that so many readers find this book as slow and unmoving as I do. I can honestly say that I don't like one character in the story. I have been reading this book for almost six weeks now and I am on the verge of putting it down once and for all! I hate not finishing a book, but based on the other reviews that I have read, it sounds as if it might not be worth it. Every time I read it, I find myself disgusted with at least one of them: Marie, Sam, Father Gannon, Omar. I feel sorry for the other half; I can't decide who is most pathetic: Renie, Alice, Benjy, Haddad.The list goes on. I wish I could understand why the author felt this was a story worth writing. I have yet to feel close to or empathize with any of the characters. I cannot wait to be finished and move on to a more satisfying read.
Is the review positive or negative?
