Touch

I enjoyed most of this story.
Until I read the last 15%, it was a four-star novel for me. It was funny and sweet and unexpected, things I love in fiction. But inconsistencies in talents or powers, and failures to anticipate in supposedly smart characters? These things are unforgivable. While it didn't kill my admiration for what preceded, it has to be factored in.
The fifth star was never an option -- there is nearly all telling of internal dialog, very little showing. This means many more words than should have been needed. It's sloppy writing.
Overall, kinda glad I read it. Really wish it had followed through on promises.
