This book was entertaining enough. The writing was well done, the descriptive passages brought you into the bayou. There were many characters, but they weren't hard to keep straight and they were interesting and well done. I enjoyed reading it, but for some reason I can't quite figure out I found it hard to pick back up and continue reading. I felt the ending was wrapped up neatly, but not the big coming together of the characters I was expecting. Nothing bad, but nothing particularly memorable for me either.
