I am reading the novel, not listening to the CD.

Well. I have to say I was slightly disappointed. I couldn't put the book down but because I kept waiting for something juicy to happen. It was long winded in parts and although I know it is suppose to thought provoking etc... I didn't feel it.
I was really disappointed with the ending. BIG TIME.

Couldn't put it down but was sadly disappointed with the ending. Made me not like my fav character Laure and I still don't get the point of Melanie's character????? She never changed and she was wasn't very likable. But I liked it enought to go out and order the author's first two books. Regardless of being disappointed with the ending I read it quickly and didn't want to put it down, even when I was on holidays with a group of friends I would disappear and go read. Sat up late with one of those head flashlights on top of a houseboat with the moths attracted to the only light (on my head) so I could read the book. It is super long but it didn't feel like it. Fast read.

well this book was disappointing to me. BORING really. I love Kellerman and this one just didn't do a thing for me. I didn't like his victims (but loved Alex and Milo as always)Melissa and her mother Gina were really annoying and I didn't like them. AT ALL. It was predictable too. I figured it all out and it felt left feild to me... like grasping to try and shock the reader. Didn't work for me.

This is the best book I have ever read. I have yet to have read anything I enjoyed more. Do yourself a favour and read this book. I love Gus (Augustus) more than any character I have ever read. FANTASTIC READ
