Query: Mediocre

I have mixed emotions concerning the book. Having to read it for a college course, the book was forced upon me and not read for pleasure. So perhaps my opinion is slightly jaded. However, I found the book to waste far too much time discussing small details (eyes, etc.) and failed to hold onto the reader's interest. The book was slightly entertaining but definetly not a favorite.
