really its not a bad read I think. The thing about hating him cos he comes across as a dick, I reckon is intentional and I reckon is just good writing.
its worth the read anyway, despite what that other thread says
That's a pretty fair comment, but I'm still glad I'm finished - it was bringing me down. He writes the teenagers well, but the adults are tortuous. Even the seemingly normal, decent and intelligent Aisha, turns out to be a pain in the arse when the focus is on her. I know that was probably intentional, but still. I don't think I've ever tutted out loud as frequently while reading a book.
