I didn't see it coming, until I ran helplessly into it. At which point I sobbed my way through a pile of tissues. I enjoyed it muchly!

One of the first books I read where I was shocked at the end! Such a vivid read with great characters and an unreliable narrator.

Great twist, but too drawn out and confusing

Did I liked it?
I don't know. I couldn't stop think about it, I wanna to finish it so I could move on. Now that I am done and I'm like... what was that? what just happened? was I reading two books?
ok, so I didn't like it the end, but I liked the story!
