Concerning the characters, I didn't like any of them. Anna is too dependant and weak , the kind of women who can't live without a man beside them. Rafe is too sensitive and jealous , which makes his character unbearable. Pat doesn't know what he really wants. Matt is a coward and his loyalty to his family is exaggerated. Suzi might be a pervert and lets any man touchestouch her body, but she sounds more intelligent than all the characters combined. Jason and Peter are sociopaths and really disgusting. Eric is the only one that I can't figure out since the author didn't make his character appear a lot in this book, although he's an interesting one. I might think that the characters in this book are stupid and weird, but Bella is the stupidest one of all of them. And, and I can't help but hate her.
