I wasn't particularly interested, but became mildly curious, as it's been a best seller for two years now.
So I finally read it, because a friend bought a copy and offered to loan it to me - and I'm amazed that something so mediocre has stayed on the best-seller list for so long. It's not actually a bad book, although there is some stiltedness that had me guessing that it's the author's first book, and I endured the excessive landscape description, but I didn't give a damn about the characters nor even about who the culprit would turn out to be.
I'm thinking that maybe it's just popular because it's so middling? Not much sex, not much violence, not much intellect.
