Billy Bathgate by E.L. Doctorow

I've been meaning to read some Doctorow for a while, and I remember when the movie came out, so I snagged this book from Jake when he gave away a bunch of his books. I really liked the descriptions of New York, but for some reason, I could never really get into the characters. Which isn't to say the book didn't move quickly - I got into the book - but I kept waiting to like the characters and it never happened.
