Closer to a 2.5, it was okay, not my personal taste.

It was okay. Not my favourite book of all time and it dragged out forever in the middle. I liked the build-up and execution to the plot twist though, that thats why I bumped it up because it was very well written in that regard. I can't say I'm a large fan of this book or any of its characters. It's by no means a bad one, but not my personal taste and I'm glad I got it through a kindle sale. I'd only pick up the sequel in such a sale.
