Tom Ripley is unbelievable unlovable as a Character. And I would go so far as to say that I almost don't know who he is. He is always putting on a mask to get what he wants.
The story switches in pace a lot. From long very slow (boring) passages ,to very fast and intense ones.
It can be very interesting but only in parts
