[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm at 70% on the audiobook version, and I'm struggling to complete this book. I'm finding it hard to follow and get annoyed with the constant time frame changes. I was going to wait to open this thread until I finished the book but decided today that I might give up so I'd go ahead and read the spoilers. The comments here are more interesting than I'm finding the book.[/quote]

I read a Goodreads review that sums it up better than I did:

"What it came down to was two things: boredom and disbelief. There was never a point in my reading of this book when I wasn't experiencing one or the other."[/quote]

I just finished the book and have been waiting to come on this thread. I thought it was meh. I’d give it 2.5/5. It wasn’t awful but it wasn’t good either. I thought Gone Girl or anting by Dennis Lehane is far better. I also disliked The Last Thing He Told Me. They both just seem kind of trite and ridiculous is the best way I can say it. I wish I had liked this more. It’s a fun genre but I’m finding just so so books here lately. I did like Going Zero, which was actually laugh out loud funny in parts. I thought it had infinitely better writing and a more interesting story line. [/quote]
