The writing style felt quite immature. Like more of a YA style however the theme is not YA suitable.  The ending was dissatisfying.

The book really did have me asking "whodunit" alot but the more I got to the end the more I found myself saying "umm no way. This isn't enough. What!" and I think that's why I couldn't give it a full 4. It is however a really good book and something to think about when reflecting on your life and how you interact with neighbors.
