Oh, yeah, i am, too for the most part. But i guess with this book there were just 1 too many things wrong with the writing (for me) and, unfortunately, the bad writing swamped the story. I mean, it was still interesting enough that i DID finish it, and i'm perfectly capable of *stopping* if i'm in the middle of something unreadable -- i have finely-honed slush skills, after all!
