These were my thoughts halfway through the book:

I'm halfway through Terry Pratchett and Steven Baxter's The Long Earth. It's pretty good as a piece of Science Fiction - they have posited a change in the world and fully-thought through the consequences of that change. It's just a bit hard to care because there isn't really all that much of a narrative so far. It just flits back and forth between a whole bunch of different characters without focusing enough on any one of them.

... and they haven't changed much. The second half kept with the one narrative and didn't digress very much. But it was still kinda hard to care, because it just didn't go anywhere. The ending was a dull thud, rather than a resounding boom!
