I didn’t love it the way I wanted to due to the fact that I couldn’t really like any of the characters, who are pretty much universally unpleasant, even when sympathetic
That was my experience with Night Watch, which is an otherwise excellent novel about women ambulance-drivers during the Blitz. I disliked nearly all of them, so it was hard to make myself care about what happened.
