kricketland 's review for:

Gold by Chris Cleave

2.0

I finished the book but I was so disappointed with the quick wrap-up of the story at the ending. I did not like the transition between present and past... I found that it did not flow well. It was hard to get into the characters, other than Sophie. Finally the story started to pick up and you were starting to understand why the characters were they way they were... but alas this was only to jump ahead into the future and wrap it up in a last chapter tidy bow. I hated the abrupt ending so much I am not sure if I would try this author again because of it.
