When will I learn? The books you can find at Target will never, never be the quality that I'm wanting? Just because I found the Shiver trilogy there once in paperback doesn't make up for the dozen of mediocre books I risk my money on.
So, while I enjoyed this book, I felt the flow was off. Some chapters lagged, and then the next chapter would speed on by, and then we'd go back to lagging...
Short of it: The first half was the best-- it was more every-day-y. Laurie is the best character; he gets booted out of most of the second half. Elizabeth is ornery, disappointingly so. Stephen seems unreal-sweet, except when he gets mad at his dad. Then he's as witchy as Elizabeth. Plot holes.
If the sequel showed up on my doorstep for free, 50/50 chance I'd read it. Otherwise.... ehh.
