Review:
This book makes a top pick for me because of how much it made me think, and for the fact that I couldn't put it down. Did I guess what had happened really early on? Yes. Did the twists fail to take me by surprise? Quite a few of them. Was it an amazing, thought provoking book? Absolutely. The writing is solid, the characters are complex and fabulous. While I was frustrated right along with Jenna, I could completely understand and sympathize with her mom, too. Her Grandma bugged me for a looong time, but when you finally understand everything (even though I guess what was going on, I still needed the details to figure out the dynamics of the relationships), it all makes sense and just works.
I highly recommend this book.
*again a review by Guinevere for ya! Thanks!
