What I Thought Of It - Five Observations/Reflections:
1. *Had I started this novel during my summer reading, I know I would have finished it in a day. I was bummed that my fall "work" schedule started. Getting back to the book last night was so fun and I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish it.
2. *The plot was unique, raw, and fresh. I've never experienced a story quite like this one.
3. *I was fascinated by the turn of events with the twists and turns. A definite page-turner!
4. *While some of the "conflicts" were solved midway through the book, there was another whole story waiting to be told.
5. *The sequence of events were well planned out and I could tell much thoughts went into telling this story. The conclusion had a satisfying ending with characters getting what they deserved.
Who Should Read It: This thriller would be perfect for any adult who craves a story that will keep you up late at night while turning page after page. Even though it would be a wonderful summer read, I recommend it for readers to pick up this fall. Happy Reading!
