Ho-hum.
I'm not entirely sure that I read the same book as all those who gave this those glowing 4 or 5 star reviews. It was apparent early on whodunnit. It's rarely apparent to me, so this is a strong indication of how much of a "mystery" this really is. I'm supposed to be gaga-googa crazy over Matthew Scudder, but he fell flat for me. He could have gotten knocked off in the middle of the book, and I would have continued to mindlessly flip the pages like nothing had happened. This read easy and had a great pace, (see? I'm not griping about everything) so I may give another one a go in the future...no promises.
