I put it aside for now but in a little bit I will try to read another 20 or 30 pages in a last ditch effoert to see if something sparks.

It took quite some time for me to care or want to know more about any of the characters. I am almost through with it and feel completely different than I did when I first started it. Maybe it just takes awhile for her to develop the characters. Or maybe she knows how she wants it to turn out, but doesn't know how she'll get there until she begins the process of fleshing out the story?? Not sure. What I liked about In a Perfect World is that Jiselle matured and was an entirely different person by the end of the book. Growth is good, especially with a character like Jiselle who starts off so naive. I am reading her new book now and I had the same feeling with the new book.

Because Jiselle was so out of touch, the tone was an interesting one. It was bleak but a little detached and dreamlike all at the same time. It surprised me.
