Absolutely hated this book. Too repetitive and drawn out.

I enjoyed reading this one, but the events and messages are already fading from my memory. The opening events hooked me, but I think after a certain point, I kept reading simply because I'd gotten so far into it already, and the story was still fairly compelling. Just didn't mean a lot to me. Wasn't left with deep thoughts or questions. The narrator kept me - appropriately - at arm's length, and there I stayed.
