It took a long time to get into this one, and to be honest, I'm not sure I ever did. I persevered just to see how to ended, and then ended up being wildly disappointed.
It was interesting to peak into a culture I know very little about. It's always comforting to read stories that take place in Southern California - it brings a sense of familiarity.
But the writing is not very strong. There are too many characters to keep track of, too many lives to follow, too...much. I really wanted to enjoy it but I just found myself waiting for it to end.
