Admittedly, some of the characters in this book have their faults, but then, I guess that's true of most people.

I tend to prefer stories that centre around the journey of a single character as I find otherwise the depth of everyone's stories can suffer as an unfortunate and unavoidable result. I also find I often like one character more than the rest and therefore resent the time spent on other character's stories. I'm just not sure this would be the right story for me. Tor's lack of communication about her pregnancy and Leila's infidelity would likely ruin my enjoyment of the novel, particularly the latter which is ordinarily a deal-breaker for me. That said, I do love the idea of the setting and Ed sounds undeniably sweet :)Jen @ Pop!
