Been reading this latest book by Burke on and off for the last couple of weeks but never felt compelled to continue after a few pages. In other words far from a page turner for me. At times, thought the plot had finally thickened enough for some real drama. But nope, only more conventional frolicking and "Burke's" patois from the 17 year old Aaron Holland. So, read up on the reviews by others herein and professions critics, all said "great read." So keep reading but finally began to speed reading after Chapter 8. Very disappointed after having read and commented on seven Burke' s books in the last five years and rated them all between 3.5 to 4.5 stars. Nonetheless, still love those jabbers. 1.5 star for the story but 4.5 star for the patois. Found only a single quote in goodreads this morning but there should be plenty more, see "Quotes."
