I was forced to read this for a class. I was over it by chapter 4, but I had to continue. So, I got the audio version. At least the speaker was good. She helped me "get through" it. If you call it getting through. From what I heard about Laura, is that she usually is a great writer. This one has so much missing, so many jumps to other perspectives (randomly, I would say), they inner thoughts and even dialogue didn't feel cohesive, and worst of all, there is no real ending, just hints of what may happen.
