For the most part, I enjoyed this novel. I liked how it was written. It varies from traditional third-party omniscient, to third-party but written by a specific character. I thought the author did a fantastic job writing as Patty from her point of view and in her voice.
Like The Way We Live Now, I hated the ending. [Spoiler] I felt that Walter was much better off without Patty and she should just suffer in her lonely misery. Also their reunion was way too contrived.[/Spoiler] Patty is spoiled and awful and I hated her.
Overall, this was enjoyable and I read this whole long-ass novel in like three days.
