It took me about a year to finish this book. It starts out strong but nearing halfway through it begins to drag on. The ending is a little mysterious to me and I may not understand it because it took so long to finish. I will say, it finally picks up again right at the tail end.

It's not a bad story though, and I do think my experience with it is unique. I can easily see others breeze through the pages and find it more entertaining than I did.
