Just awful, and aptly named.
The book has semi-interesting characters, but you never really get to know them. The trouble is a sort of stream of consciousness storytelling that is just hard to follow. Further, by swapping between characters so often, you don't get a chance to really get a grasp on how they are really connected, or WHO each character IS.
I'm sure I read a review or a promo somewhere along the line that made me want to read this, but unfortunately the book is a huge disappointment and was frustrating to read, not entertaining or pithy.
The author has quite a few other books published. I can tell you right now I have zero interest in any of them. There are so many good books out there, waiting to be read. I'll go for those instead.
