 This may be the harshest review I give a book, but an honest review is always going to be something I provide. The concept of a novel comprised entirely of lists is SO intriguing to me and I truly feel that this novel could have done so well under different circumstances. (view spoiler)[Truth be told I was hoping that there would be a bit more of an explanation for why the novel was in lists, I sort of went into this novel with the expectation that our narrator might have OCD and uses lists as a sort of coping mechanism, but that wasn't a factor nor was there any explanation as to why the novel was in lists. (hide spoiler)] 
 There was no "main plot", because the story just jumps around to different story lines that tried to get all tied together at the very end (rather poorly I might add) and I developed no real attachment to any of the characters. On the subject of characters I feel that the main character, Darren, might be my least favorite character I've ever encountered in my years as a reader. He's VERY selfish, and isn't understanding of other people's circumstances or lives, just how their choices based on those circumstances negatively effect him. A lot of the elements that I REALLY wanted touched on in this novel were just barely glazed over and not given the attention I felt they deserved. 
 This book is 646 pages long and a lot of it just felt like filler, I feel like it could have been cut in half and be a much stronger novel focusing on the more important plot elements. I think some may find it enjoyable because the writing isn't bad by any means, this just wasn't the book for me.
