3.0

Just one word :
CONFUSED

Sejak awal sampai akhir, ceritanya sangat membingungkan , entah apakah ini memang gaya penulisan [a:Anna Leonard|1714023|Anna Leonard|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nophoto/nophoto-U-50x66.jpg] (yang merupakan nama pena dari [a:Laura Anne Gilman|168090|Laura Anne Gilman|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1254740511p2/168090.jpg]) yang rumit, atau akunya yang tidak menaruh perhatian pada ceritanya

Alur ceritanya tidak bisa tertebak, dan sampai 3/4 bagian masih meraba raba, mau dibawa ke arah mana ceritanya.
Baru pada akhir2 dijelaskan tentang masa lalu Lily, dan kaitannya dengan kucing2 dan mimpi2nya
Peran Jon T Patrick selaku hero tidak begitu banyak disini

Bagus, tapi bukan cerita yang bakal kubaca ulang

Lily Malkin has always had an affinity with cats and her dreams are haunted by strange imagery. She joins forces with Special Agent Jon T Patrick to hunt someone who is killing cats in strange ritualistic ways. The two of them are initially wary of each other but find themselves strangely attracted to each other.
I enjoyed this read and the occasional in-joke and nod to the SF community. It's an unusual paranormal and the characters are well drawn.
