Helpful Score: 2

This book totally failed to live up to the hype in the blurb. I was very disappointed. No in depth financial story here, I'd class this as a gay coming-of-age novel since that sub-plot seemed to be the only coherent thread holding the novel together. I thought the characters were only shallowly developed, the backdrop of the financial shenanigans was very thin, and the pages and pages of drug-addled or senility-fueled ramblings were an unnecessary distraction. I almost skipped pages, I was so turned off reading them. Wish I'd skipped the entire book instead!
