I should probably dock marks for two things that bugged me - one major (are we really supposed to believe that a man had completely forgotten a large, important chunk of his life? Namely, how he made his money) and one minor (the author's laughable depiction of how 25 year olds speak) but I won't because the book itself was exquisitely well written with perfectly created characters. I loved this book and was pleasantly surprised because it was a random pick up at the library in advance of a vacation to Palm Springs (I'm one of those people who likes to read books set in the locale I'm visiting!)
