I enjoyed this book because I listened to it on audio. Not sure I would've gotten through it if I actually had to sit and read it. The story was convoluted and kind of interesting but not as good as others I have read like this. Finally, in the last 1/4 of the book I started caring what was going on with the characters more. I didn't hate it, it wasn't super boring, it just could've been better if it proceeded a little quicker.
Maybe it's because it was audio?

The worst book I have ever read. Severely unlikeable characters. Asinine storyline. If you see it at the store, leave it there.
