Definitely a racy book. A quick read. Great book if you want to get back into reading after a slump.

Spoiler

I wish the author would have went into more detail about Corinne’s initial casting out from church. A happy ending, though I’m frustrated at some of the main characters’ lack of growth in some aspects.

Didn’t know the author’s name was an alias when I first bought it. Learning about that was cool.

Honestly super well-written,

but the ending killed it for me. Get out of that awful, abusive church, Enoch! Corinne deserves better, and so do you!

Immature writing at times.

Spoiler

The use of parenthesis was off and I felt could have helped have a less obvious ending but disappointed me.

WOW… Corinne was a damn good book. I could not put this down. All I can say is, I think I believe the theory that Stephenie Meyer wrote this under the pseudonym Rebecca Morrow.
