Just picked up my copy from the library today.
I started to read this today and have already got through 20%! It's a difficult book to put down so I imagine that it will be a quick read despite it's 500+ pages.
I wasn't really happy about all the swearing in this at first but I've sort of got used to it now.

I finished this book in 3 days, I simply couldn't stop reading it. The story and layout just flows!
The main story is interrupted every so often by "interludes" which fill in all the gaps and add so much depth to the characters.
I wasn't really sure whether I would enjoy this one as it's not usually my kind of genre and I really didn't like all the swearing. But I decided to ignore all that and carry on reading as I found myself liking the various characters in the little group. I also really appreciated the sudden and unexpected humour which was just thrown in randomly.
The whole story was woven together beautifully and finished to perfection.
I'd definitely recommend this and I'm so pleased that it got picked for the group read :)
