When you read a novel, you really have to not so much like the main character, but understand why he's doing what he is doing. This is part of the reason why I tend to read mystery novels written by women. I just don't get men. I'm just sayin'!
This is how I felt in the beginning. After things started falling apart, I got it. Then things began to get interesting. I like his writing style. He's obviously a lawyer, but he manages to create believable, unlikeable characters and a great plot!

I actually prefer protagonists that are not too likable. It makes them more interesting for me
Sounds intriguing. I too like thriller/mysteries with legal&/or medical backgrounds. :)
Everybody has their preferences.
Thanks for pointing it out.
