This book was heading for 2 stars initially. 3 annoying main characters. Especially O. What a fucking annoying douche. Ben and Chon not far behind her honestly. But luckily the real heroes of the book (Lado and Elena) start getting some time and the story gets pretty good (once we don't have to hear about how fucking cool O, Ben and Chon are and how much O really really loves sex. And shopping. And sex. And Ben and Chon. Every. Single. Paragraph). I stuck with it though and it payed off. I ended up really liking this story and the writing style. Next Don Winslow book: Power of the Dog, then The Cartel.
As a side note I saw the movie a couple of years ago. The only good thing about it was Benicio Del Toro and John Travolta.It could have been so much better but it was just lacking something. Also I didn't think much of O, Ben or Chon in the movie either....but the book was well worth the read.
