I didn't guess the ending, so I guess the author succeeded in telling her tale. However, it seemed like too convenient a trope and left me feeling unsatisfied. The main character is wholly unlikable until the very end, when suddenly her character does a 180. The back story why she suddenly changes is explained in just a few sentences and makes the protagonist's character more one-dimensional rather than less.

I loved this! Another one I picked up because I wanted to read before I saw the movie. Think it is much better than the movie. I loved the slow change, the unraveling of the mystery, as well as how Lib came to understand Anna and her family, even if she does not share their beliefs.

This book is ok. Very slow at the start and very repetitive. Does not build any momentum until the very end. I kept waiting for a big twist, but it wasn't that.
