Wowza. This was a really good book. A friend recommended this to me, and for some unknown reason, I never have too high of expectations for books that friends recommend to me, which is something I should change because I haven't really ever been disappointed by a recommendation.
Although this book was touch and go for a little bit (it was difficult to really get into the book and had a slow start), once it got going, it really got going.
I was first very taken with the writing style. It was unique in a fresh way. While it wasn't anything out of left field, it was just enough different from the other things I've read to make it new and exciting to read.
Then there was the plot twist. Can I say completely unexpected? Of course, when the plot twist hit me, I had no choice but to stop (when a book makes me stop and think, I'm always all for it) and think about any possible clues that were dropped early on. When I thought about it, I realized a ton, but even all of those subtle hints brought me no where near guessing the ending of this book.
This was an easy read, quick to the finish, and I'd recommend it for anyone taking a trip to the beach or cuddling on the armchair with a cup of tea.
