3.0

This was decent but I liked the first book better.  I appreciate that the series is bouncing around people's perspectives, but it still felt too focused on the protagonist for a story that's so socially oriented.  I liked that the plot was better defined, but the storytelling was a little too unfocused for me.  I can tell you what the plot is but I can't even really tell you what the dominant mood was in it.  It's not bad at all, and I like the characters and how everything worked out, but it didn't quite manage to grip me.
