The writing itself was fine, but there were too many characters and Ali didn’t make me care about any of them. Also this was one of those books where the names just confused me. I understand it’s historically accurate but it confuses me if someone is referred to by multiple names if it isn’t done well.
I have no problem following Lynch’s Locke Lamora name changes, but Ali’s for ALL the various dudes in the book just got a bit much for me.… (meer)
