Emotive and challenging
I had to take a few days breather before writing a review for this book. It is an truly emotive read, challenging your personal ethics by drawing you into the lives of Louisa and Will. I am not going to elaborate because it will very quickly become spoilery. Suffice it to say that it is very well written, it tackles a significantly poignant issue of the current era and it left me upset, disturbed and satisfied.

promised more than it delivered
Although a great piece of work it never realises it's parts that could have turned it into something very special. The very strong cast play their roles and absorb you. However it continuously hints of something magical underneath and it's this magic which makes you turn the page until the magic, instead of being the core of the book, sputters out before it took hold. Had it not this could have become a classic.

If you love games that draw you into the story than this is for you. You explore the family tree of a girl named Edith and even though it is very linear it doesn't feel like it. It is a very unique game and it is one of my favourites. It is a bit sad and depressing at times, so if you are not a fan of games like that than this might not be for you.

I think it ended a bit abruptly and i wasn't convinced by the romance but it won me over a lot with Annika's dedication to her sick younger brother and the stories and the wishes and all the stuff she does to make him happy. I shed a few tears near the end when i thought it was going to be bad news--and with how it ended, it could still be bad news--but i did like it.

Huh...i thought I'd enjoy this more. It dragged in places and I definitely felt like I was reading something that was written in the nineties. It wasn't modern enough for me romance wise. I like my rough and ready, dirty talking guys and my kick arse gals but other than the occasional scene, it wasn't there.
It had a good premise but it fell short for me. It was too long, too. I get bored by long books.

I went into this book not having any clue what I would be reading. However I am very glad I got to review it because this was so amazing. It was like a giant puzzle.. it kept me guessing on what was going to happen next and who was going to do what. I have never read da vinci's code but was told it was sort of like that. I can't tell you if that's true or not but if so I need to read that as well. Derek's writing was so amazing it was vivid.. It showed you this world.. it showed you what was happening and at the same time showed you nothing. I loved it and I'm so glad I got to review it
