I did not enjoy this book, did not look forward to reading it, and it's a relief that it's finished. The thought that kept going through my mind the whole time I was reading it was the continued realization that I just did not care what happened to these characters -- past, present or future.

I was so bored with it that even the ending (which I was assured would be rewarding) was an anti-climax because it couldn't be any where near exciting enough to make up for the hours I'd spent in total boredom in Henry's random thoughts.
