1. Wow! After the prologue, I knew right away we were in for quite a ride! I felt like the person described was someone straight off the ID channel!
2. I really like Holly Graham. So far she seems to be doing all the right things and I also like Sergeant Moreno for giving her a chance. But as for everybody else.....I'm not so sure I trust anybody at this point!
3. I think the two timelines work well for this book. We gradually get to piece it all together, and the short chapters keep it rolling and make it extremely hard to put down.
4. Yes, but it was tough to do!!! I'll try to wait and pick it back up after I hear what you guys thought.

1. Right from the Prologue I knew I was going to love it! Let the games begin! 2. I haven't really got a huge dislike or like or anyone in particular yet. I am somewhat disliking Sutton, just a feeling in my gut.... but I'm not sure why yet!
3. I think the two timelines are helping with the suspense of the book, and the overall thrill of finding out what has happened and where is the story going... It is keeping the reader on their toe's.
I particularly liked the paragraph
"It's hard, keeping up this facade for everyone. You know I like the fighting, don't you? You're putting it together, I know you are."
At this point in the story I thought to myself, well no I'm not putting it together, I have no idea what's going on.... :)
Also of interest is the marble in the kitchen... how did the blood stain get there???
4. Oh my GOD, did I stop where I was supposed to! I read one more page, cause I'm a rebel like that, lol! :) I keep going to pick up the book again, and then scold myself and put it back down again.
On a side note, I wish I had of ordered the print book, I really do hate making annotations on my ereader, give me my colour sticky notes any day!!
Like you, Ang, I'm still wondering what is really going on! Also, I'm curious about that blood stain too!
Mod
Oh the Blood stain right?? That's got not only us wondering but the cops picked up on it too

I like Holly too TarHeelGirl
Not only was it tough to stop but I was so engrossed in the story that number one I hadn't realized how much time had passed while I was reading and number two I had to force myself to stop. :)

Yeah Ang this couple is a real mystery
OMG that mystery person he/she's got me all tied up too
Ang you are such a rebel :)
Sorry I'm so late. Had a really busy week and just finished reading the first section. I'm loving this book and staying up way later then I should, so I should be posting earlier next time!I love the beginning! I wanted to know everything about this person and how they got to this point.
I'm not sure I really like or dislike anyone right now. I'm still trying to give them all the benefit of the doubt. I more feel like I can't trust anyone at this point and my guard is constantly up.
I love the two time lines. Piecing the story together slowly like this is half the fun.
I did stop at the first section only because I was already behind. ;) After I finish posting this, I'm immediately going to read the next section.
Mod
I love..."
Thanks for taking time out of your very busy schedule April. I saw the girls first day of school pics they are getting so big!
I felt the same way about the beginning
I'm off to read part two right now too!
Mod
When I finished the prologue I wanted to know who this mystery person was.
The characters are so rich and varied
I can't stand Sutton's mom and Sutton's friends are starting to show their real selves so I have no idea at this point.
And Ethan is also an enigma at this point, he sounds genuine but their marriage is really strange.
I too like the dual timelines I think it helps delineate what happened when
Great discussion!!
