WHOA!
So, this had to have been one of the most captivating books I've read in a very long time! I think the last time I devoured a book like that, I was reading The Lovely Bones.
I literally could not put it down. I started reading it on the bus ride to work, which is only about 15 minutes and I picked up an old bad habit I have...reading while walking down the street.
Every free moment I had, I picked up the book - breaks, lunch time and the walk back to the bus stop after work. I read it all the way back from the airport and almost missed my stop...twice...and then I came home and read until Alex got here...and then I stayed up until 2:00.
I read quickly, but not usually that fast. I mean, the book has 500+ pages!
BUT IT WAS WORTH IT! I think I'll have to reread parts of it...if not all of it, but it was so good.
I won't say too much about it because I don't really want to spoil it...I knew one little thing about it and it wasn't even a detail about the book and I think it made it different to read for me and possibly I read it anticipating something...and I wasn't even sure what it was that I was anticipating. But that's probably why I read it sooooooo quickly!
By the way...if you hadn't already figured it out, I completely recommend this book!
I loved "The Lovely Bones" too! Maybe I should pick this one up ;)
