I am obviously in the minority in that I did not really care for this book at all. I struggled to get through it. Because it received such rave reviews and numerous awards, I kept waiting for it to get better. The premise is great, and it brings up some excellent points, but I found it very dull overall. Near the end I was just "skimming" to get through it and find out how it ends.
