Some insightful passages, spinkled with funny punch-lines, but quite disappointing in the end.

This is not really a story, nor a review (that would be too much energy spent on this deceptive book). I picked up a galley (ie: no cover art to clue me in), hoping to discover something about the toy industry which I’m intrigued about. Only to realize that the story line was mainly focused on the love life of the main character. I have nothing against beautiful, insightful, breath-taking, mysterious, adventurous, well-written love stories. But this book has none of that. I did enjoy the first 200 pages, then became bored and annoyed with the repetitive, stretched-out plot, until I gave up and skipped to the conclusion only to discover how poorly thought-out it was. Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooring.
