now, don’t get me wrong - this was a good read! .. but i’m a reader that prefers slow to medium pace throughout the novel. this book started out slow, but once the obvious plot began to unravel it went too quickly and by the time we discover the sicko who hid his face the pages ended. . . that was it? that’s what we’re left with? usually this type of response would mean the novel was just *that* good, but no - it gave me shivers, it definitely made me question a lot, but it ended to soon and the ending was rushed.
