review 1: Semi-interesting plot, unlikable main characters, and juvenile writing. Most of the plot points that happened were like a bad horror movie cliche, and completely predictable. I also wanted to reach through the book and smack the main characters a few times (especially Jamie). And maybe it was because I had just finished a really good book, but I found the writing amateurish and cliched. You're probably wondering why I finished the book, and to be truthful, so am I.
review 2: I am in a quandary about this book. On one side I found the book annoying in that the actions of the main character are completely nonsensical. The author tries to ratchet up the tension by upping the over the top reactions of the main character and neglects the source of the tension. On th... moree other hand I kept reading it to see just where the plot was going. I was going to give this book just two stars but it is not badly written, just let down by a badly executed plot. This book had a lot of promise in the beginning, such a shame it didn't deliver. less
