I started reading it a month ago (I'm a slow reader lol) and got to the middle of the book. I really liked the first part but half way it started to feel like it's repeating itself and lose its meaning, like where does it go? It feels stuck.

Is it getting better? Should I push through or just give up?

I felt similarly midway through, but I ended up finishing it and I'm glad that I did. The technology references become less prevalent as the book progresses with the story focung more in the human element and relationships of the characters. I didn't think it was an amazing book and was a bit surprised that it got the hype that it did, but it was still an enjoyable read to the end that I gave a 4/5.

Thanks good to know.. You gave me a new wind for a bit although I just got to kill a mockingbird out of a whim and it's waiting for me :) I feel like I'm gonna love it
