I didn't even finish the book. I made it through about 100 pages because that's usually that's the point in a story when I feel I've read enough to form some sort of opinion on it. And at page 100 I just couldn't take this book any more. The characters didn't feel like characters. People were being described, but for me none of the characters came alive. Deliliah was so melodramatic and shallow. The rest of the characters may have been interesting, but I felt the descriptions of them were flat and one dimensional. And the pace. Very very slow. I don't have anything against books with slow paces, but I felt like it was unnecessary in this story. Many parts were just boring or uninteresting to me. I do see how this could be a nice book to read for some people but just not for me.
