With this book we were split down the middle 50/50 to whether we had actually finished reading it this month. Those of us who hadn't had found it difficult to get into and that it jumped around from one story arc to another, those who had said it continued like that throughout the book and took them until at least halfway through until they really felt into it. For a book that was so well reviewed we were all a little disappointed and all agreed its not one we would reread or recommend. Even so, we still had a good night chatting about it (and other subjects too!)
