Entertaining, but not very memorable. About halfway through I realized this book seems very familiar. Turns out I read it several years ago!

Meyers’ characters are improving as she writes, I still don’t like them very much. I find them either annoying or unbelievable. I would give this book 3.5 stars because of the interesting plot, and how well it would do as a stand alone novel. What would step it up is a greater motive for the characters that’s not some sort of “unexplainable gut feeling.”

I’m searching for new bed time reading authors, and this book was recommended to me by a local bookshop, as I like Baldacci and Child. This is a book of peaks and troughs, fast action and slow padding. I ended up reading late into the night to finish the last chapters - but now, the next day, I can remember little of the climax. It was ok. I’m still searching for a new author.

If you’re looking for realistic literary fiction this isn’t it.  It is, however, an interesting and engaging story.  Say what you will about Stephenie Meyer, but she’s a good story teller
