Oh, the plot is really pretty basic. And it's incredibly thoughtful and well-written. It gets a little bogged down in a few places, but overall, I thought it was very well-crafted and pretty intriguing.

It came to me highly recommended and I got pretty engrossed by it. It wasn't one of those books that I drudged through and thought later was a waste of time. In fact, I'm glad I read it. Pieces of it have stayed with me.
