Query: Slow Read

I found this book and author by accident and figured I'd give the book a chance. It's a very slow read, and it's written in the first person which doesn't help it along at all. The story line seems to be missing some clarity. The book ends in a very awkward way, like you don't feel like the book is actually finished. I don't anticipate reading any more by this author unless it's very highly recommended.
