tough.

So I gave it a go. I found the first chapter difficult to get into and from there it got worse. I personally didn't really like the way the perspective was given. I don't know if it was the fluidity of the story or that it seemed to lack something that I couldn't put my finger on.

At any rate it was an ok read with an ok storyline. The characters could have been more involved for my likeing and more depthful.
