I knew going into it what this story would be. I mean, I didn't know the particulars, that's why I read it. But I knew it would be a shell and not actually anything fully formed.

The characters were as thinly sketched as ever though the plot was larger, both with more elements and a broader scheme. It was dark and gothic... but it wasn't complex or fascinating or even revolting because there was no substance to any of it. Still, I read it because I was curious and knew there wasn't much harm in a book I could finish in a few hours.
