erinrae's review against another edition
3.0
I was not a fan. This book tried to do too much and be too much. It was all at once a crime novel, a bit of a supernatural thriller, a mystery, a tender family drama, and was not successful at any of them. There were far too many insignificant characters that added nothing to advance the plot or deepen the story, and only served as useless distractions.
The only redeeming quality of the book was the relationship between Jenny and Paul, which I thought was beautiful and tragic. The rest was a mess.
