I really like this author...this book just didn't work for me. I thought the pace was super slow for most of the book.
The story is very interesting and if it was a television series I'd be right there engrossed in it. I feel like the first 80% of the book had some great parts, but just really dragged on. The last 20% of the book really picked up the pace and got much better, but it was slow getting there. The characters were mostly likeable and easy to relate to. Even though I didn't rate this very high I'd still want to read a sequel if there was one.
Also, if you read the audiobook... while the narrator was good for the most part, he had the worst Irish accent I have ever heard. But the rest of the characters were done well.
