I really enjoyed it, in spite of the slow start. I loved the characters and the balance of heartache and brutality with love, hope, and community. There are a LOT of characters and they all were well-drawn and had their own complexities and motivations. I didn't find it to be an easy book, but neither did I find it hard to read, in spite of the difficult subjects broached. I really glad I picked this one up.
