"What was your favorite toy?" I asked as we turned onto Pacific.
"What? You mean, like--sexually?"
"No. Jesus. I mean when you were a little kid."

That ending was different. Where was the climax of the book?

I wish the constant wisecracking would stop. I usually like it, but when every character does it, it starts getting old.

Did they seriously just smoke a joint? Because if they did I'd really have to wonder about why that was included. But maybe I missed something? It was referred to as both a joint and a cigarette so I'm kind of confused.

"Has this always been here?" I asked.
"It's new."
"But--just to be clear--we have a high-security hotel suite in the lab. With cable."
"You can't use it."
"But I hate sleeping on the couch in the break room."
"You don't have to. You can sleep at home, like other people."
"Is that bed a queen?"
"You're never using this room. Understand?"
I sighed (cont in comment)

"Is there coffee? If I'm going to be conscious, there should at least be coffee."
"I'm sure Derrick's making some."
"I'm not a domestic," he called from the kitchen.
"But you're making some, right?"
A pause. "Yeah."

Yes, it is. I like it, but when every character (and her group is not small) in the book is wisecracking I start to get a little weary of it.
I can see how that can get old, especially if everyone is doing it.
It's not bugging me enough to dislike the book, though. There are a few things that bother me about it, but I like it on the whole. I'll probably backtrack to get the whole story. It wasn't confusing to start here, but I'd like to see the history.
Yes, it is. It's a pretty interesting setup. I think it would only be improved by starting at the beginning.
