A review by mrsdrwareboggs
Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane

4.0

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I'd have to give this 4.5 stars. The twists and turns are fantastic. The book leaves you chilled to the bone. Once you pick it up, you can't put it down. I know that the ending implies that Teddy is actually a patient and is mentally insane. But, I still wonder if he is actually Andrew Laeddis or if he is Teddy Daniels? I'm more inclined to believe that he is actually a patient. But putting on that entire charade seems to be so far fetched...but I'm not sure. Deducting 1/2 star because I think that the book could have been equally as amazing without the extra language and sexual explicitly. Other than those two aspects, absolutely stunning!
