Graham Watson asked:

A good book but not a particularly likeable main character, annoyingly so and I agree the editing was poor, far too many unhelpful passages and a disappointing ending am I alone in thinking this?

Florine Same thing for me. I actually liked Scott, bit messed up, but I liked the anti-hero character. But I got totally disengaged with the book when the author started talking about the different people. Some chapters were particularly complex for no reason. I feel the intrigue could have been better handled. And the end... what an anti-climax!
Samantha The editing was poor... There's a passage where Scott is talking about appropriating every day things as art and he refers to "Dali's urinal" or something like that when I'm sure he's thinking of Duchamp's urinal known as "Fountain" lol
Penni I liked Scott more towards the end of the book. I really didn't have a love or hate relationship with any of the characters. I just wanted the book to end but the ending was disappointing.
