This was a good book for the most part, well-written with decent character development. There are a few things that made me crazy, one being the "narrator". What a self-consumed person, wow! I found myself shaking my head and saying "I can't believe he said that to her!" Also, given that the book was sort of about his love for flying and the book covered I'm guessing close to a year of time, I think he was only actually up in the air 2 or 3 times during the book. That seemed odd, although not a show-stopper for sure. I thought the ending seemed "tidy" to everyone but me, the characters all seemed just fine with it.
