I enjoyed the writing style itself, as well as Ava as a deeply-flawed, largely unlikeable narrator. But that just wasn't enough to make me care at all about what happens. Overall this lacks substance and achieves nothing.
Also, another reviewer pointed out that there is no reason for this book to take place in Hong Kong and I agree.
