review 1: This book was just okay. It had some very interesting characters, but none of them were really well fleshed-out. I felt like it took a REALLY long time for the book to take off. I kept thinking it was heading in a different direction which was confusing. I guess the ending was the biggest misstep. The book was raw and gritty, but the ending was wrapped up in a neat little package. It didn't fit with the rest of the novel.
review 2: A surprisingly quick read with an underlying theme of freedom & the consequences of our choices/actions. Some readers may see negative undertones toward religion within the novel, but I did not (as my own religion values freedom & free agency). I expected a the story to go a particular route, but there were some surprising twists &
... more turns that caught me unawares. A very good ending, happy in some ways, but not in everything - Alis experiences both heartbreak & happiness. less
