review 1: This was a bit disappointing. I think I had issues with the continuity. This was more like a mash up of Olivia and alt-Olivia's past. I don't think the author paid enough attention to details like what happened to her growing up from the show to make a convincing background in the book. The story itself was ok and kept me reading it. I sort of had to accept it for what it was seperately from the show. Olivia's personality and motivations were there but the rest was not so believable as a tie in.
review 2: I was excited to read this one at first, expecting to learn more about Olivia's upbringing. And we did get some of that, but then it took this dramatic swing towards the whole hunter/prey dynamic that took up most of the narrative. Then out of the blue that pl... moreot line just ended abruptly and it became all "Girl, Interrupted." It was all just very disjointed, and really out of place from what we know of Olivia Dunham's history from the show. Why was none of these events mentioned? Seems like a major life event to be simply forgotten. I hope the 3rd novel is better handled. less
