review 1: I found this book difficult on multiple levels. First, I thought this book was written in a detached manner. I found I could never completely connect to any of the characters which didn't allow me to warm up to the book in general. Second, the book was extremely gratuitous in graphic language and scenes. Granted this is very important to the storyline and the character of Nick, but the constant reference beat me down and almost came across that it was much more of a shock factor. Although I did finish the book, I thought it really dragged on. I have read some other reviews of the book that said that, although they liked the book, they couldn't put it down almost because it was like a train wreck, I didn't have that same issue.
review 2: Is there a star rating t
... morehat says I liked it a lot, but found it disturbing although not shocking, but I'm kinda sorry I read it, but glad I read it and wow, that is a mental bang? No, well, maybe there should be. I won this from the Goodreads First Reads program and although on one level I'm pleased, it was a cool read, it was also messed up. The storytelling has great flow, the characters riveting, deeply flawed and show how humans can be so changed from events both within and outside their control. The plot itself was twisted, well, like the characters. I'm going to sweep my house for hidden cameras now. Love thy neighbour, but be appropriate. less
