I found just about every character to be quite annoying and morally questionable, so there was no one I was routing for throughout.  The book gripped me, though mainly because I was hoping that one of the characters would redeem themselves and turn out to be a good egg.  They didn't!  It felt a bit crass just for the sake of it or for some kind of 'shock' value, rather than to achieve a particular sense or dramatic section in the book.
