It was agony to finish this book and I only managed because you can do other things while listening to an audiobook. I spent the last three hours hoping the ending would compensate for the previous ten. Half of the plot points don't make sense. There's just so much suspension of disbelief you can throw at things. And theain character is an absolute whiner (or at least the narrator plays it like that). I spent most of those 12 hours and 50 minutes wishing the author would put her (and, as a result, me) out of her mysery.
