I feel that the story had so much potential but the writing was awful. The first half of the book was the worst. Many of the analogies had me rolling my eyes, they were just plain dumb. The story jumped all over the place in the first few chapters and did not do a good job of introducing characters. Therefore the reader is left totally confused of what is going on. Finally, after the halfway point, it starts to get really interesting but the strange thing is the part that is so interesting isn't the main premise of the story. Anyway, the only reason I stuck with the book is because it was my book club read for the month, but we all felt the same way about it. Otherwise I wouldn't have made it past chapter 3.
