So bad, and also so good. It was so fun to spend time around Loch Ness, but he tried to write a character driven story and his characters were terrible. Their relationships were terrible. Their reactions were terrible. It was terrible. BUT I loved how he talked about the areas around Loch Ness, 100% just because we have a trip planned there. If you are not going to Scotland anytime soon, I do not recommend you read this book.
