Couldn't put it down. Loved the characters. Found the organization a bit off ... so much disclosed about our mystery guy all at once! Also had to suspend disbelief quite a bit in more than one element of the narrative. Was delighted by the conclusion, although the resolution was a bit rapid. Nevertheless, it's departure from formula was very refreshing.

This was fine. It started off strong and then fell off towards the end.

I finished this a few days ago, but wasn't sure on my rating. I am giving it 3.5 rounded up to 4. This book was very sad. Parts of it got a little long and wordy, but overall I liked the characters and the story.

I loved the way this was written and the perspectives that were given. Heart wrenching story and deeply emotional. I liked the mystery aspect of it and now I'd like to re-read it to understand things I might have missed the first time.
