I finally gave in to the hype and I actually enjoyed this book. Despite the poor reviews, I was a fan of the writing style. I thought it nicely captured Juliette's mental state and gave an insight into her mind. However, I did miss a bit more suspense in the book. It was a nice build-up for subsequent books, but lacked a spark. The characters were already nicely described though, but I don't understand where the obsession with Warner comes from. I am curious to find out why Juliette can touch Adam and Warner though.
