Ughh, I absolutely hated this book. I understand that it's a book that described a generation, but I just got fed up with the characters' lives and their complete lack of responsibility. The worst was that the book seemed entirely pointless. It's kind of like the blog I wrote about my time in Edinburgh; it was enjoyable for people who knew me, but no one else would have cared. This book left me completely unaffected, well except for the frustration in that I had to force myself to finish it. I think if you like stories that follow the life and the growth of characters you may like this novel, but I felt like I was dragging my feet to finish this book. The development was slow and though I enjoyed some of the descriptions and culture, it was about as often as a blind squirrel finds a nut.
