I genuinely enjoyed it, seemed like the author had church related, maybe even childhood trauma that I related to... The twist was not set up very well, because I didn't expect it AT ALL, didn't see it coming till it was blowing up in my face, and it didn't make sense with the little context clues and story hints.... Jack Brook's emotional responses weren't right, the brother thing didn't make ANY sense till the very end and that was kind of cool, I liked Jacob in the end ... Seemed this novel was going to many places and could've gone somewhere awesome but in the end it just made me feel melancholy and a little lost s arching. My mind for any hints and all I found was stuff that didn't connect too well.
