    The story started out well enough, but I quickly grew bored with it. The writing is unengaging and rather bland throughout. And for some reason, the author seems to think the reader wants to know when any character decides to take a piss. Literally. I'm sure there's some symbolism there I didn't care to figure out.

    The last part of the book was better than the rest (following as it did hundreds of pages of boring political and religious machinations and thinly veiled allegories on civil rights) but by the time I reached those final 100 pages I was reading not to find out what happened, but just to get through the thing.

  • It was fun to listen to this talke from a different perspective. So what really happened??? :) This might be a fun book to read for an adult book club. At times I thought it was a little drawn out.

  • OMG I HATED THIS BOOK!! I had heard quite a bit about this book, so I decided to read it. I think it is the most horrible book I've ever forced myself to finish. I kept hoping it would get better, but that never happened. I was more than disappointed- I was disgusted by this book.

  • Interesting idea but I think I like the musical storyline better and I'm glad they made the changes to it.
