I have just finished this...it was a huge disappointment after The Shadow of the Wind. I thought it started well but I ended up skipping big chunks of it just to reach the finish. There were lots of things about it that i just found very contrived, especially the relationships between the characters in the book.
By Carlos Ruiz Zafon; Has anyone read this? I adored The Shadow Of The Wind, but am really struggling to care about this book.

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
