Very disappointing. There was a brief section in which I was interested in what was going to happen, but for the most part I was pretty confused. And then the ending was terrible. This is a book written by a man, in which the protagonist is a woman who is basically manipulated or helped by a bunch of men, only to have her life saved by a man when she does something kinda dumb at the end.
