I kept on reading it because I was kind of interested in what was going to happen, but it really didn't draw me in and keep me urgently turning the pages - mild curiosity rather than really wanting to know. <br />JohnJohn Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03544917163930698029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-38731364633676548882011-05-18T21:52:51.551-07:002011-05-18T21:52:51.551-07:00Being a long-time Pohl fan, I was excited when thi...Being a long-time Pohl fan, I was excited when this title became available at my local library. I am now about 50 pages in, and not particularly interested in going further. I'm not really sure why; all the elements seem to be there, but I find myself not caring all that much about what happens next. Since I have a hard time not finishing a book, it was actually something of a relief to find that others share my disinclination.Ciroccohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14776508219741555658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-72046336030503055942011-05-10T18:49:45.117-07:002011-05-10T18:49:45.117-07:00Hi Amanda,

I'm not sure if my little grumbles are quirks of mine or if others feel the same way.

It does sound like it has many intriguing ideas. Will have to see if our library is carrying it yet.

Whatever the genre, I like characters that feel real. I hope that you do like it - I'd be interested to hear your views.

I hope I don't find the characters to be that "meh." That's definitely always a let down.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01395008376786680669noreply@blogger.com
