1.5. I thought of giving it a 1 but well, I guess it does have all the elements of a good tragedy, but I'm just not into that type. I take it back. Regardless of how format-wise, it might have worked for certain crowds; in retrospect, giving this book a 2 would make me feel unfair towards the other 2s I've given out. So yup. I just really didn't care or like this book. Sorry not sorry.
