Natalie M. (natalietahoe) - , reviewed Good idea for a story, but WAY too long on 10/31/2008 + 70 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 6

This book is a hunderd pages too long -- I felt like it would never end. The premise is something you would think would be a great book or movie, but man -- didn't feel like it was going anywhere at certain points. Sometimes it felt like every single moment had to be reviewed in painstaking steps, and then towards the end, it got sloppy with so many details that were brought up towards the end, but were never really resolved. Best part of the book -- Nico in the truck. Those who have read it know what I'm talkin' about.

It's a decent book to take with you on a trip, but overall, I would say not one of Meltzer's better stories.
