Not bad. The end was the best part of the book. It was a bit all over the place. (

3.5. Most interesting point of view was Christian's. Enjoyed it, but not as much as Kubica's others. (

It was almost an okay book. Lots of holes in the plot and way too many obviously bad decisions by the characters. At one point I decided to pretend it was satire and that made it a lot more fun. (
