Read This Book!
I read about 2 books per week, so I have read a lot of books. This one is special. It is definitely on my Best of the Year list, and I strongly recommend it to everyone. I see that some reviewers have listed the pace as "slow". At first, when reading it, this book was hard to get into, but then I realized that the problem was ME. The writing is so very good that it deserves more than little snatches of my reading time. In reading it, I realized that I had become somewhat addicted to the little, 2 and 3 page chapters of many of today's books. This one requires a bit more of the reader, but, in return, the reader is rewarded with a splendid story, a remarkable resolution, and some of the best writing that I have read all year. Highly recommended.
