A two may seem like a harsh rating, but I will admit that this book had it's redeeming qualities. The plot moved along at a decent pace. I will warn interested readers that I found the prologue very difficult to read, but the pace speeds up quickly. I also thought that this book did raise some interesting questions about cultures clashing and why people think the way they do. However, I was rather unimpressed by the writing. There is something of a romantic plotline in the book, but it's silly and not very good. The descriptions are earnest and very emo.Another complaint about this book is that the author didn't do enough with the ending, in my opinion. I felt like the author decided to cop out with the epilogue instead of giving the show more reader more details. I felt like I could almost see her get tired of writing, which is always unfortunate. howeverm I enjoyed the read overall. show less
