Wow someone missed the class on showing vs telling (or maybe the class on where to start a story ... I dunno) cuz the whole first five or six pages was nothing but telling telling telling, backstory, backstory, backstory, info-dump hell.

It didn't help that this was the book club edition, and the font was extra small to fit the book club format. I gave up. Just coudln't be bothered. Maybe if it had been told better??
