Overall, I enjoyed the book and I liked the plot.  It was rather slow in the beginning and I had a hard time getting into it but it did pick up in the second half, especially the last 100 pages. 
 I found Candace to be quite unemotional and I wish there had been some deeper insight into her feelings.
