I took off half a star because I thought that some of the mentions of breasts were a bit needed - like I get the thing about dirty pillows but do we need to know about Sue Snell's 'firm breasts'? I don't think so?
Loved it anyway though.

The jumping around from POV to POV to newspapers and writings of other characters telling the story was done in such a bizarre way. Like his previous books, this also included (despite being only 242 pages) descriptions of and interviews with people that really did not matter. The entire part three could've been left in the drawer as a draft and nothing more.
So all in all, not a great read.
