Negative Positive
Title: Yawn...
Review: I was extremely disappoited in this book. While it included some challenging vocabulary, the plot was convoluted and meaningless. What took 600 pages to explain could have been accomplished in about 200. The main character is a bore and, frankly, the reader is not invited to cozy-up to any of the characters. I do not believe that this book accomplished its mission (so I assume) to be a page-turning mystery. Instead, it was a mix between character study and at attempt at social commentary. I could not decide if I was reading an essay or a work of fiction. I do not recommend buying this book.
