Really enjoyed this book. The entire book kept me on the edge of my seat, hoping for the best for Todd and Viola, trying to sort through the information we were given and figure out what is the truth and what were the lies. 
I liked how it was written, it was challenging at times understanding some of the words but the misspellings give Todd a distinctly different dialect than Viola.
