I think I should just stay away from books about this particular period in American history. Apparently they just don't work for me.

I just didn't find this book as engaging as other people seemed to. I skimmed over the last 50 or so pages because reading became tedious. I would have stopped reading altogether if I would have remembered to bring an extra book on my road trip. Always bring an extra book.

The sex scenes seemed rather unnecessary. I have zero problem with the bisexual story line. In this case, the sex scenes didn't add anything to the story. If anything they felt forced. Again, I'm not opposed to sex scenes in my reading. I'm just a snob in that I think they should add something to the story. This seemed more about trying to get a rise (maybe literally ;) ) out of the reader.

The Alma/Jack character was weak. For someone who was constantly trying to convince me she wanted to be the brains of an operation, Alma sure didn't do a lot of thinking. She was more about braun than brains. Hit first. Ask questions later

What did I just read?! The story was just starting to come together and getting somewhere and BAM it's over. I did enjoy the ride tho. And it's definitely one of those books you HAVE to pay attention to every detail or you will be quite lost.

Audio, uncomfortable, awkward hard to follow with attempted character differentiation, Saskia Maarleveld narrator, maybe better with a different book
