Wow, what an odd book! I loved it. It started out kind of slow, but I got so wrapped up in the mystery of it all that I couldn’t put it down. Be warned: There are no chapters. No extra breaks between the paragraphs even, at least not in the kindle edition I borrowed from the library. This could be off putting for many (it was for me with that extra-lengthy opening paragraph), but stick with it a little longer and see if it doesn’t grab you.
