<p>I just finished this book the other day. FINALLY. I have started this book a couple times before and couldn’t get into it. This time I thought I should just commit and read it. Holy cow. It took me forever to get through this book. It wasn’t very good so it wasn’t very motivating to read. Plus, when I did get reading a few chapters at a time, I was so distracted or upset that the story kept going on random tangents that I didn’t think were necessary for the story line. 30+ chapters in, new main characters were being added. I was not impressed. </p>
<p>So I decided to stick it out, because Chuck used to coach hockey with the author. He has written a few other books (which I have read), but I was least impressed by this one. I had high hopes, though because I thought it was going to be a good “who-done-it” book. It just wasn’t all that interesting. I feel bad saying the book wasn’t good because I knew the author. </p>
<p>The writing itself wasn’t all that bad. It was mostly the new characters and adding in seemingly unnecessary information throughout the book. There just wasn’t enough to hold my interest. </p>
<p>Therefore, I am not going to recommend this book to you. It just wouldn’t be the nice thing to do to you! <img decoding="async" style="border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none" class="wlEmoticon wlEmoticon-smile" alt="Smile" src="http://andihays.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/wlEmoticon-smile1.png">&nbsp;</p>
<p>One of my <a href="http://andihays.net/wordpress/2012/01/01/2012/">resolutions</a> for the year is to read more. I have been quite diligent about reading every night before I go to sleep. I have been given some books from some friends that I want to read. I also want to read more while I walk on the treadmill. I used to read to and from work on the bus and I enjoyed that time. Now I need to make myself find other ways to fit in reading. </p>
<p>Have you read anything lately that I should be adding to my list? </p>
<p>Happy reading!</p>
