review 1: I actually thought this book was crap. I read it and read it quickly. Here is one of the problems - the writing was so uneven. Tons of descriptions of the land and the sea - boring. The story went in fits and starts. Maybe everyone isn't like me but I like to have a bit of a timeline when a book is covering years - I couldn't figure out how long she had been gone or anything that happened with time and that really bothered me. Also I don't want to spoil things but there was never any resolve with several important plot points. That really bugged me. Basically this book was kid of crappy and it felt like she hijacked other plots from better books and then ruined them. Not a great read.
review 2: From the first sentence, this book felt like it was trying... more to be Rebecca, and naturally, it falls short. This is a love story that lacked proper progression - it felt like only 3 pages had passed between the time the characters met and the time they "fell in love". In the story, many months had passed, but the reader doesn't get to read anything about that. The ending was disturbing and felt slightly unfinished. less
