Query: Doesn't live up to the hype...

After seeing this book on the bestsellers list and being on Oprah's book club I decided to purchase this book and see for myself. It took me longer than usual to read this book and I must say it takes a lot of patients to finish this book. I did enjoy the development of the characters and was most interested in the story of Jackson and Valuable. However, it was tiring about midway through the book and the first chapter made it hard to get interested. The writing style I often found unnecessary and didn't really have much affect on the story. Overall I glad I read the book but wouldn't recommend it.
