I bought this for less than $2 when I urgently needed something to read on the train. Unfortunately I lumbered myself with a slow and melodramatic monster for three months. Actually it did get better in the latter two-thirds (enough for it to be bearable to read, at least) but I never really got to the point of liking it. The main character was totally incomprehensible and a lot of the other characters weren't really that likeable, or didn't have enough substance to get invested in. I'm glad this is over.
