3.0

I really wanted this book to end and tie up the story and it did not and I am not sure if that is because a sequel is imminent or if that is because that is what the story demanded or just that I am easily annoyed.
I suspect I have expectations about horror novels and this book broke those expectations, specifically about what constitutes the end of the story.
But I really liked so much of it, especially the portrayal of Wall Street and also just all the weird stuff going on with the different kinds of people.
