Query: A good read, could have been better, and a bit dated.

This was a book I couldn't put down. However, with all of the commercial references it seemed as though various companies sponsored the book. There were some parts that contradicted one another, such as Trina's favorite book before she died was Koko, but sometime later the author wrote "her favorite book after Koko was Green Eggs and Ham," which wasn't consistent. The peak of the novel was the very first chapter. A good first chapter is what gets a reader interested in the book, but the rest of the book was a little disappointing.
