One of only two books that made me physically ill...in a good way.
fallonwilloughby's review against another edition
1.0
I have to be honest in the fact that I managed about 130 pages before I finally flipped to the end to read a little there. I just gave up. I couldn't force myself to read anymore.
This was a book chosen for our book club. It is vastly different from what I imagined from the description. I felt as if the author simply used first person to TELL us everything - we never really experienced many of the events, simply told from Isabel what was happening or had already happened. It was getting better but this storyline was so warped and beyond what I could handle.
I have to say that another book club member is greatly enjoying this story for how different and "weird" it is. So there's that. To each their own.
