The Curing Room by Michael Winn
2.0

The last 20% of this book is somewhat interested. But the first 80% is just not. I'm not sure how I made it through to be honest. It's repetitive. There's too much backstory and yet somehow I didn't feel like I got to know any of the characters at all. There's a lot of emphasis on things that seem very unimportant and little to no emphasis on things that should be major points. None of the characters are likable. I gave it an extra star because it does get decent toward the end for a bit. But the ending is very unsatisfying. Overall I wasn't impressed.
