What I liked about the book
The book was well written and it was slow to start out but really picked up pace after about 50 pages. I liked how the author Larry Crane left the ending open for a sequal of the book. It was a quick read only took me four hours to read it, so if you want a quick read this book is for you.
What I didn't like about the book
The only thing I didn't like was how slow the book started out. But it was still a great read after i got passed that point.
