This was enjoyable -- she's a great writer, in terms of ear for language -- but I found it far more complex than her first two novels, and consequently a little too ambitious. There was so much going on behind the scenes in terms of plot that I felt we lost some character development. Glad I read it, but it won't be a re-reader like Between, Georgia.

I'm not quite sure what to make of this book. I really liked Thalia and Laurel. I liked the mystery and didn't see the ending until it was on top of me. I even liked the supernatural element. I think there was maybe too much back-story?

Wasn't to partial to this book. It started with some good potential but then just stopped. The nonsense drove me crazy. In short it was anti-climactic.
