Camille, the main character and first person narrator, isn't a deep character. She appears to be more concerned with getting laid than performing her task, which is strange considering the mystery she's supposed to solve threatens both earth and Other World. She and her sisters are all supposed to be a type of detective for the Other World, yet all of them seem to have trouble figuring out how to go about solving the mystery and are slow to come to any conclusions. The main characters knowledge base, specifically when it comes to Japanese, is inconsistent.
There are a lot of ridiculous metaphors in the writing like "I was on him like snow on a mountain". The sex scenes are short and corny. Three of the four being described as getting to the top of a cliff and tumbling off.
The book is entertaining in a bad way. I kept listening wondering how bad it could get. There are some great ideas in the book, but the execution of those ideas wasn't all that great.
