Given the author's past books, I was looking forward to this one so much, but I ended up really disappointed. The book is divided into three sections, with a different narrator for each section. The first section was fantastic, the second knocked me down to a 3-star area (not something I would recommend, but something I still was glad I read), but the final section ground all of the forward momentum to a halt and left me dreadfully bored. It was 100 pages of the final POV character just angsting angrily that the other two characters were judging her, interspersed with descriptions of reading fortunes in a pack of playing cards. The star rating might average out to 3 stars when looking at how I felt about each section, but the fact that I spent the last 2 days dreading picking it up and sighing and figuring I really ought to just finish it and move on makes it hard to give it more than 2.
