The ending was awful. I was like..... this is IT?! Come ON. I take it back. The last half was awful. I called so many of his "twists" that I don't see how they could be called "twists", as they were so blatantly obvious. The first third of the book is okay and draws you in, but I feel like I wasted 10 bucks on it the day it was released because of all of the hype of the author. It seems that he has clearly run out of good ideas. Anyone can PM me for more details if they like. (I read a LOT and tend to finish a kindle book, usually thrillers or other fiction, within 2-3 days. I'm not a literary critic by any means, but I'd like to think that I have a wide range of comparison.)
