Meh. Not my thing. 

It’s not a bad book, I just didn’t do enough research before adding it to my library queue. I saw Tor and made grabby hands. Characterization is good, but everybody sucks. And if there isn’t a plot, then I need at least one character I’m rooting for. I’m not a fan of the style, either. I didn’t feel like enough new information was added to justify repeating scenes in full.
