Now, I don't know if this *exactly* counts as reading it, but we listened to the unabridged version of it on a road trip (17 hours worth, I think). So we experienced the book.

And I loved it! The narrator is captivating, the story is full of unexpected twists and always a plus, I received a history lesson from Greece to Detroit to SF to Germany. My only complaint is the ending wrapped up abruptly. But all good things must come to an end.

I started this book three times and didn't get drawn in. Once I did, I stuck with it. I loved Desdemona, but didn't bond with anyone else. I kept feeling like I needed to love Cali's character, but only did so out of sympathy.

I enjoyed the twist toward the end. Did it make it all worth it - meh. ..

This book took me a while to read. At first I couldn't get into it, but I kept reading or coming back to it, I'm glad I did. Great story! ...more

Worth reading, but I liked his other book, The Virgin Suicides, even better.
