I'm a little over halfway in and quite bored. The writing is very good, like the words are put together in a pleasing way; but I feel very little for the characters, and sometimes I feel like the clever writing is keeping me at arm's length from the world of the book. I may try to finish it, but it will be out of a sense of obligation, not really out of a desire to see how it ends.
