This book was boring, I couldn't finish it.  I couldn't relate with the main character and found his job to be very boring.  The odd situations and characters he met along the way were more interesting but they came and went quickly.

I'm sorry but I just couldn't even get through this book. The beginning was incredibly boring, seemed like it was just going to be background information. I thought I should just trudge through and get to the good parts. Well, once I realized I was 15% into the book and was still in what I considered to be "super boring background," I had to stop reading. I actually returned this book. Bummer since the subject matter sounded really interesting.

I was excited to read this book after seeing all the reviews.  I was disappointed, this was boring and the characters not interesting or likable.  I had to make myself finish it.

I'm sorry, I found this book to be extremely uneventful and just weird.  I was expecting a lot more than what I got here, maybe I missed the point of it completely, but it was out-right BORING.  It started with potential, then dragged on for so long that I stopped reading it when I was about 75% through...I figured that if anything actually happened after that point, I'll still just be frustrated that I wasted so much time on the rest of it!

I just couldn't get into this book. I had high hopes, but in 50 pages and I was still really bored. I'll give it another try but I'm putting it off.

I wanted to like it- I really did, I just couldn't get close to finishing it. Boring, slow, no connection to the characters- a big disappointment.

Sorry, but there is nothing about this book that I liked. I finished it only because I try and finish every book I start, but it was arduous and I wished I hadn't when I was done. Sorry, FW, but this wasn't good....

I bought this because it was a National Book Award winner, but I didn't finish it because it was so boring.

I bought this book because it sounded like something I would really love, but I just couldn't finish it. I really tried, since I paid for it, but it was SO BORING. There was a lot of potential, and I'm sure someone might like it, but for me it missed the mark.
