This was one of those rare books that you seriously cannot put down. I read it in one sitting. Yes, it's only 166 pages, but I seriously could not walk away from this book. My nook battery died about mid-way through the book and I stood in my kitchen with it plugged into the wall reading that way until the battery was charged up enough to go back and sit down!! I love the way this author writes to make you feel as if you are the character you are reading about. You are inside inside her mind. Her jumbled thoughts and memories came alive on the pages. I felt her turmoil and her anger as her "hallucinations" became reality. I felt the fear of the little girl she was seeing. I became the character. The ending is not what I wanted but what I half-expected so it was not surprising although a little sad. From what I understand this is a first novel by this author and I will definitely be looking out for more from her.… (mehr)
