This book had more twists than Lombard Street! Every time we think Anne has it figured out and she is going to succeed, BOOM, plot twist. So, why did I like this?
1. Anne - she is just awesome. She had to make a lot of sacrifices in order to achieve what she thought was her desired end result. Some may call it masochistic, but there was a lot at stake.
2. Anne and Ben -- sigh-- I just really want things to work out for these two. Such a struggle!
"I'm a cheese muffin, aren't I""
"You're a romantic, Mr. Zin."
"Is that better or worse than a cheese muffin?"
"It's lower fat."
They are just so adorable. I am keeping my fingers crossed for them.
3. This book had me holding my breath at points. Like I said, many twists. I would think I knew what was going down, and then something else would happen. I love that.
4. We learn a lot more about Wormwood Island and it's inhabitants. We also learn a lot more about Anne and who she really is, and the battles she will have to face.
I read a review that described this book as a roller coaster. I would have to agree. My emotions were all over the place as the story unfolded and evolved. Can't wait to find out how this all ends.
