I love Wally Lamb's character development. He is brilliant in the way that you not only come to know his characters, but also to a degree become them. No one can do this quite the same as Wally Lamb, he's a master.
The first half of this book had me flying through it and I just could not put it down. Then, I hit a snag. Honestly, I started skimming several pages at a time once I reached the sub-plots and side stories. Just now, a little short of 200 pages from finishing this behemoth I am putting it down for the last time. What started as intense desire to read more and faster has now turned into apathy. There's just too much going on and my life is complicated enough without having to carry around a 5 pound book that I stopped caring about a couple hundred pages ago.
