I have seen some good reviews for this one but it seems simply like a decent read and not too amazing.

I recognized the title, but I had to go to GR to see if I'd read this book. And, yup, I did, back in November, and I rated it 3 stars. The fact that I can barely remember reading it should give you an indication of how un-memorable it was for me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532824873675624385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4541582388948046827.post-28061592715889669552015-04-07T04:06:32.482+02:002015-04-07T04:06:32.482+02:00I never deal well with more than two POVs.

You really seem to be reading a lot of Contemporary (even if you don't think so, lol) It is good for me that ypu are because I don't set aside much reading time for Contemp, unless they are seriously topical, so you are weeding the garden for me.
