My Thoughts:  Have you ever read the synopsis of a book, and think it sounds awesome?  And then it doesn't hold your interest?  That's what happened to me reading this book.  I was doing good until about halfway through the book, then it just happened.  I lost interest.  But I kept going and finally finished it.  I don't think it was the author, characters or story line, I just wasn't interested.  The story line is great, but it didn't hold my interest.  All I can say is it's a readable book, but not this time.  I give this book3....
