This book didn't instantly grab me in the beginning. In fact, I found the first couple of chapters to be a bit strange and boring, but as the story unraveled, the strange plot started to make some sort of sense.
However, I still have mixed feelings about the book in general. I was fairly interested in knowing how Tara's condition would turn out in the end, but the unfortunate part was that most of the book dragged for me and I felt like that made me care even less about how it would end. There were a lot of characters to try to remember, and at times I would forget exactly who had done what. My mind would randomly drift off while reading, but I still caught the main story.
The entire book revolves around a phone and honestly when I found out what was actually on the phone, I have to admit I felt a little let down. It seemed a little over the top to murder people because of what's hidden on a phone.
I think the book would have intrigued me more if it had been shorter. It definitely didn't make me want to run out and read any other books by this author, but it interested me enough to at least finish it. Seems I am in the minority though as I have seen a lot of high reviews about this one. I just feel like it dragged out a bit too long and maybe I just got bored too fast.
