I feel exactly like that dude, seriously. It was one of those "it's not you, it's me" kind of books.
The writing is good, though a bit flowery, what I didn't like were:

Sayang kekurangan dari novel ini adalah adanya kekerasan yang dialami oleh Grace, bikin kesel waktu bacanya, terlalu kasihan dia harus mengalami pelecehan seksual dari orang bawahan pamannya Matthew.
