2.5

I realize reading this that this book is not for me. I understand that it has a huge following but I could not get into it. The premise of this book is interesting but I feel like its going several different directions. It has me confused. This first book felt like 2 or 3 different stories, in different tones. The only one I enjoyed being the last 30%.
