"This one took me awhile to finish (I read 3 books in between)…ending was good but not my style of a writer :/"

"Wouldve been so much better without all the repitition. Made the rest of the book boring. I didn’t even care about the end by the time I got to it. "
Lauren New
"Good premise. More complicated than anticipated. Too much repetition and description of non-Important info for my liking. LOTS of skimming. "

"Struggled to get into this book, I read a few chapters. Didn’t find myself picking it up to continue reading.. Anyone else feel this way? "

"This one could have easily been 4 stars but it needed some major editing. <br/>The core of the story was good, but hearing the same details and phrases over and over and over AND OVER again made the story overly repetitive and it felt like reading an essay where the writer was trying to meet the word count."
Rachel Ord
"I have never read a book by Lisa Jackson and I loved this story.I felt as if I was there watching the whole thing through Kara’s eyes.The ending wasn’t what I expected but we’ll done."

"The ending was lack luster. Did not fit the story line and really seemed like the author lost the plot and was hastily ending the story with a messy answer that didn’t make sense. "
