I wrote a really good review of this a while back but it's been erased. Unfortunately I now have very little to say about this book.
I read it because the movie is coming out soon and many of my friends and people seemed to enjoy it. I will never learn not to trust popular books.
The story line was droll. The characters, predicatable. I think the thing that I liked the least about this book was the writing style. It was awkward and the words were poorly places (as you know, I know all about this. I write these terrible reviews). There were some jumps in the story too that didn't make sense. They'd tell you part of something but not finish it for another few pages with was really irritating.
All in all, not a good book. I think they hype made it worse. Still looking forward to the movie. It may be better.
I give this book 4 out of 10. I wasn't impressed.
