I didn't dislike this, but I also wasn't really invested in it. I got about halfway through and realized I wasn't going to finish before our book club meeting, which I wasn't even sure I was going to attend. So I stopped. I liked the characters well enough but one thing that bothered me was that halfway through, there were still two completely separate plots, and while I was pretty sure they were eventually going to overlap, there was no indication that was going to happen anytime soon.
