Mar 14, 2017: Not even published yet, and Benedict Cumberbatch has already signed up to star in a movie based on this book!

Sep 7, 2017: Finally got my hands on a copy and read it in a week, which is pretty fast for me these days. I really like the concept of this story, and it might make a good movie with Anthony McCarten as screenwriter. I just wasn't bowled over by the book as I was hoping to be after all the rave reviews. It had its moments, but it also had its problems. I don't wish to pick it apart, it was enjoyable enough.
