I enjoyed it. It was a lively thriller with good characters and a decent story. The multiple viewpoints were well done, especially the way in the way they all exhibit the same tendencies at first (since all but one are clones/dittos of the main character) and voice the same thoughts, but then start to develop more individual characteristics as time goes by. The end is, um, a little heavy but I didn't suffer too badly. I know some people were rather disgusted by the last third. YMMV.
