Title: I see this is on Obama's vacation reading list...
Review: I wonder if he'll do as I did (and as several other reviewers did also) and stop reading after about 100 pages?The missing quotation marks didn't bother me, neither did the run-on sentences. And -- in the beginning -- I was entranced by the prose.I began to sour on the book when it seemed that another author had taken over the writing of the second half: the prose became cloying, the plot twists were predictable, and I imagined it becoming a template for a schmaltzy made-for-TV movie.Soon after, I put it down, half-finished, and eventually put it into the stack of books headed for the library's sale.A big disappointment.
