This book is actually quite intriguing and (for me, at least) kept me reading right up until the end. But the end... that's where everything fell apart.

I won't spoil the ending, but suffice it to say, the person behind the swapping of the babies and their explanation made zero sense to me. The more I thought about it, the less sense it made. And when I thought back on the earlier parts of the book, things that were said and done -- in the light of the ending, they became truly ridiculous. I feel as if the author wrote herself into a corner, and then couldn't come up with a good reason for the primary conflict of the book. It just felt sloppy and illogical.

Not sure if I'll bother reading any more books by the author or not. Her style is good, but if this ending is indicative of her other work, I'd just as soon pass.
