Started off so slow for the first 80-100 pages (took me over a week), then it dug its claws in and wouldn't let up (just a few hours, didn't want to put it down). I'm glad I stuck with it!

Amazing book but a little long. Some chapters can get a little boring but the plot is going to make you keep reading.

varo's review against another edition

The unjustifiable depiction of rape is what finally made me put the book down after trawling through racism, homophobia, and misogyny
