Although this book started out slow for me, I'm glad I stayed with it. Once it picked up I couldn't put it down. There is so much going on here - love, deception, fear of commitment, the internet, hacking, mental illness....and it all seems so random until Franzen eventually ties things together in a such a clever and interesting way. The plot twists and turns and thickens. Needless to say I highly recommend this book.
