The Other Side of Night

I've had this book borrowed from a friend for weeks, and I've heard nothing but good things about this but for some reason I can't bring myself to keep going back to it. 

It's just too slow paced for me and the mystery is barely moving. 

And also I'm just tired of constantly hearing how incomplete Harri's life is without a man and how DISTRAUGHT her single life is, and it's just dragging on for way too long for me and I'm just gonna return this
