This was kind of a quiet, boring book. But it's also weird in that you don't mind too much that nothing too exciting happens. You care about the characters in a bland half-assed way but you keep reading to find out what happens next. Might be a good book to read when you're on vacation or something because it doesn't take too much concentration to keep up with the simple story line. And if you leave the book at the beach or forget you left it in the hotel room while you are driving home, you won't be too disappointed if you never find out how the story resolves.

That said, it's kind of a good story in it's half-assed, bland way.
