Yes
Such a great plot, but the execution quickly turned tedious around the halfway point. It just kind of stumbled around, recycling plot points until I was just skimming to get to the end. I liked the idea of the book and its focus on the importance of words and how we deem them important. But I don't think the characters lived up to its premise and the writing style didn't keep my attention.
