Suicide Ride: The Platinum Man - E. Llewellyn
A friend of a friend told me I had to read this book. That is was just the most well-written book that she had read in such a long time.

I told her about my reluctance to read it. It was not well reviewed on multiple sites, and individuals I trusted gave it unfavorable account.

She told me it was almost "lyrical". I should at least give it a read. And she loaned it to me.

So I told myself to keep an open mind and in the beginning I thought this is written differently. It reminded me of a Dark Noir films from the 40's, but after a while the newness wore off. There were beautifully written prose, but with what purpose. After a while, it just became too much with seemly little storyline. I stopped caring and I put down the book.

So since I didn't finish the book I don't feel comfortable rating it.
