well perhaps I do like a bit of chic lit for amusing purposes.. I would just get very depressed reading world issues, biographies and history all the time.. anyhow...back to SASL
I did enjoy the book, found it an easy read and entertaining, and it was the departing point for this blog and all our wonderful ideas! so bonus!

I have the feeling the book was written as an introductory book for an actual ESL class since it touches upon a few of the mannerisms and characteristics of the western culture.
Yes, characters never really develop, there are a couple of twists that I’m sure the author wanted to write differently but perhaps had too little time? and ended up having to wrap up the book quickly.

But, at the end of the day, the book did what it was written to do... enterntain (lets not forget the couple passages that at least got us thinking and fantsizing of our own Mangnus, who worked for the CIA and went for chinese food.)
For the bits of the book that made me laugh out loud and chuckle in the train (while trying to cover the name of it so people wouldn’t think I was some sort of perv).. I give this book 3Vs.
