After a slow beginning, which was then interrupted by me reading My Sister's Keeper, I really enjoyed this.
Until the end. I really didn't get it. It was almost like she got to a certain point and had to end it now, and so it just got finished off. I found it odd. There was what seemed like it should have been a key thing, that I totally did not get. I'm not silly, I'm sure, and yet, I didn't understand what it was meant to be about.

I would probably read more by Alice Blanchard though, because despite the odd end, I really did enjoy this.
