Wow, even though I was told what to expect, I wasn't expecting anything as visceral and as raw as this book. The beginning though tough lulled me into a sense of security, I thought I knew where it was going to go - I didn't! There was a point in the middle where this became a bit of an issue, as I felt it moved around too much, but there was a reason to it. I'm not immediately going to move on to book two, not because I don't want to, but i feel I might have a nervous breakdown of I did!
I thought that this was a pretty good book! From what I had heard from other friends, however I thought it would be more creepy. Unfortunately, this was not the case. I think that I may have a different sense of what is creepy than they do, though. It was a fun, quick read with really cool illustrations. If you want a good read that will only take a couple of hours. I highly suggest this book. There were a lot of moments I found predictable, but I was still intrigued by the ideas of the novel. I gave it a four out of five stars because I wanted it to kick up the creepy factor a notch, but all-in-all it was a really good book!

I felt obligated to watch this after I had a meltdown at the last one. This time I was left a mess. I couldn't believe that Natasha killed herself but it was going to happen whether I liked it or not.
It showed a new side to the characters, which I enjoyed immensely.

I loved this book so much as a kid. I reread it so much that the cover nearly fell off. I was a pretty solitary child, so I related to the main character completely. I loved the history as well, this book is one of the many reasons I got a BA in history.
