meresand's review against another edition

I just didn't find the author's point of view interesting, and I made it nearly halfway through the book without even touching on the murder plot that was supposedly the main plot of the story. Moved too slow without any hint or setup of what was to come so I didn't feel the need to keep slogging through the awkward interactions the author describes.
