This was an extremely well written book, and it captivated me from start to finish. Although it is lengthy, the chapters are short but full of such glorious stories, that you cannot put it down. The story of a little girl that will bleed to death if she does not move location every 3 days, and how she grows into a woman, along with all the sights she has seen.

I delayed reading this book for a long while and then flew right thru it! I screamed at parts and giggled like a crazy child! It was so good and the ending was completely unexpected.

Such a great book! I read this years ago and decided to reread the series. I'm so glad I did! Quick, light reading with some cozy mystery thrown in!

I did not understand this book at all. Very confusing and it made no sense.

I enjoyed this book. It had a very slow start, but once it got going, it was really good. I felt a little confused at the ending and how the time-line wouldn't cross back over with her being born while possibly still alive? I'll have to reread the ending I think to make sense of it.
