Mehso-so

I (finally!) finished this and I'm not sure what I think of it. It was interesting yet weird. There often seemed to be entirely too many characters yet the dozens of interconnected people all had fleshed out thoughts and back stories. However very few of them were likable and that certainly turned me off. I'm torn about how to rate this but I don't think I can call it a pick.

I'm halfway through this and I think I have a good handle on all the characters now. #castofthousands This is kind of weird but really interesting so far.
