I almost made the mistake of putting this book down for good. At page 60, I was still waiting for the story to happen. For the "ah ha this is what the book is about" moment. Someone told me to stick it out to page 100. Thankfully I did, because that's where the story finally picked up. I was surprised at the overall theme of the book as well. I assumed it was mostly a book about coming to terms with loss, when others thing your are the purpose of it. Oh and sprinkle some mystery into it. I was defiantly wrong. It's more mystery, life choices, and the sinister nature that certain evens can bring out in a person.
I only give the book 3 stars because of the very slow beginning and the writing style of the book. Within a chapter, a paragraph will switch past tense and present and even character view, without any warning. At times I would read a page before I figured out the author was placing us in the past, and from the eyes of another character. It caused me to have to reread sections so that it made more sense.
