rated 4/10: bad but could be read
This book is "fantasy", I read just a few pages and found no fantasy. I believe fantasy does happen.
What I did find was a stupid girl. Someone that did not inspire me to read further. She -- and her stupid actions -- inspired me to stop reading. So I did.
Though I then read the Wikipedia entry for this book. And learnt several things:
Man Booker prize tells me nothing about the quality of a fantasy. World Fantasy award indicates a rubbish fantasy book. And from the Wikipedia plot summary, I learnt that I was wise to stop reading.
If you like whatever the Man Booker judges like, go for it. From this one experience, I do not.
