I thought I would like this, but the format of the story was jarring (a film project where they look back on a character's life). It was hard for me to connect with the characters, and they didn'thave as much depth as I wanted. I appreciate what the author was trying to do, especially since this is based on a true story, but it just didn't work for me.
