This book was circulating at the library a lot this summer and after it died down I decided to see what the hype was about and I was very happy with this book. I’m not partial to mysteries usually other than an Agatha Christie novel here and there, but I loved this type of mystery. The Molly Gray character was very interesting and lovable and I wish I could read about her again and again. The people she surrounded herself weren’t always the best kind of people, but the way she sees them makes me not care because I just want to hear her point of view more and more.
The mystery itself was good a little twist that I didn’t figure out so that was fun as I usually feel in mystery novels I figure out the ending half way through.
Crying score: I got watery eyed for Molly, but right after she would make me smile.
