I finished this book in the sense that I had to skim (and skip parts) of the last third. Overly long for the little that happens in it. Then when a couple things DO happen near the end, it's rushed and almost glossed over. Was going to give it 2 stars but the sense of relief when I finally put it aside leads me to one star. How this book got the rave reviews/5 stars I will never know....
