Here's the thing - I think in another environment I would have liked this book. You know, the one where I'm at a cabin for a long weekend or such and have hours to read. As it was, my bookshelf and libraries at home called with more exciting things.

This is a slow moving book, which, personally, I know is not for me. Maybe one day I'll come back around to it - the first chapter brought up some questions I'm still wondering about but since the book then flash backed years and said answers are maybe a 100 pages away. I did like the prose. I did like the small, character building moments. But I wanted a touch more tension.
