Characters you really fall in love with and root for
I couldn't put this book down.
I wish this book had been around 10 years ago. It is so rare to find a book with such a strong teen female lead that doesn't end up completely centred around teen love/lust. I loved Briar rabbit and the writing was compelling enough to bring me to tears at the more intense parts of the story. It's a great read that I couldn't put down.

Jaw dropping at times but some inconsistencies
There were moments where I actually applauded the writing after finding out another piece of information and twist to this non-stop thriller. The snappy writing allows you to stay engaged with the story and the endless plot turns make it all the more intriguing.
I had a few qualms however. Some of the action sequences were bordering on Hollywood and were totally unbelievable, making Alex Cross seem invincible. And the serial killer narrative that went parallel to the story seemed almost pointless although it was at times even more engaging.

Hard to follow
Tough
I took quite a while to finish this book, I had to have a couple of breaks from it. I'm not sure if it's because it's quite old and the style of writing is hard to understand but I found this quite hard to follow. It seems to jump from characters and there's alot of quotation marks missing when needed, again this may be because the book itself was written a long time ago. The actual story is amazing and Oskar risked his entire life to save so many people.
