Strange; didn't keep my attention

All in all, not the worst book I've read. While I liked the concept, it could have been so much better. I finished it just to see where the author was going. The synopsis makes it sound much more interesting and mysterious. But you find out the "mystery" maybe halfway through (if not sooner) and then nothing really is revealed from that point on. It was a letdown. It's also written in a bit of a "stream of consciousness" way (not my favorite style to begin with) so that makes it a bit hard to stay interested. I often finish a book in a day or two. I'd only pick this one back up when I had nothing else to do and was just trying to get through it to see if anything interesting happened. It did not.
