ABANDONING. I liked the idea that this was part of the global reading program where people around the world read the same book at the same time... but I just can't get into it. I thought it would be a fun mystery since I once shared a rental car in a blizzard with two strangers to get from CHI to DET and remember what a weird dynamic that creates. Alas, I didn't care about any of the characters and I could only handle so many hints of foreshadowing. "I felt like someone was looking at me..." – YOU ARE IN A MOVING CAR WITH FOUR PEOPLE, this seems pretty easy to verify or dismiss, no?
