I read it... finished it last night actually. The premise was good, and I liked the blend of dry humor and angsty drama. Could have done without the overlong sentences and stream-of-consciousness style, and some parts did drag on. Still, I enjoyed it.

I just started it today and I like it very much but sometimes it does ramble a bit and I have to read over a paragraph. I made it about 1/3 through today, it is a quick read.

I finished yesturday and all in all I didn't like it, the second half of the book really dragged on, the rambling style of the book started to get a tad annoying to me. By the end it had felt like it was entirely too long (although it was only 245 pgs) and I really had to push myself through it. The story seemed to get more confusing and grim as it went on and it lost what I liked about the first 1/3 of it along the way.
