What an excellent psychological thriller! Full of twists and turns. It's Joanne Harris's best book so far.

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Nowhere near as good as the first one which is disappointing. Also, despite the setting, bore no relation to the first one. So confused. Will give the third a whirl and hope for the best.

What on earth? I normally like Joanne Harris especially her darker novels but this book had me confused from the beginning to the end, a muddled thriller with every character having at least one other pseudonym by the last page I am still wondering who did what to whom and why.

Joanne Harris is a brilliant writer, but that doesn't keep me from wishing this book unread. I can't rate it because no matter how fantastic the story is written, it leaves me with such a bad taste in my mouth (pun intended) I just can't like the story. There's a huge difference between a good story and good writing. This story is just too evil for me.

Well, I gave this a red hot go, but in the end I just skimmed the last third because it was just not engaging or even making much sense.

I tried so hard with this book but in the end decided that I was getting too irritated by the main character. The flow and time line was confusing.

Джоан Харис в интересна светлина - като автор на психологически трилър. Книгата предполагам ще хареса на хората, които имат блогове и прекарват значително време онлайн.
