OK, I got an ARC of this book and it was well over 500 pages, so the fact that goodreads states that it is 300+ pages makes me think some things have been cut, that being said I was 500 pages into the book until I realized it had a paranormal piece to it, which if I had known earlier I would have skipped it altogether. This book has a fast pace to it, but only when you are reading it, if that makes sense, it is not a book that pulls you back to it when you sit it down. Therefore it took me a few days to read it but when I was reading it the pages turned quickly. The characters are ok, with a book of this length I expect to feel more for the characters. It did have alot of twists and turns and it kept me guessing, but I assume that since i never thought paranomal behavior was an option I did not guess correctly. What I learned from this book is that a paranormal occurence can change a book completely and in my estimation can tie up any loose ends. I liked the book for keeping me guessing, but the paranormal stuff is not for me and it left me feel robbed of a real ending.
