2.25

    While there were certainly mysteries! One was pretty easy to figure out, but the rest I didn't see coming.
  Wow, did I HATE that ending, however! I mean what happened?! It's like a cliffhanger, but there's no sequel. I dislike it when books have an ambiguous ending. 
   The characters were also highly unlikable, I couldn't even find one of them likable. I understand characters having flaws, but none of them seemed to be decent people.
   Overall, the book was meh and would have been so much better if at least some of the characters were likable.


Narrator Rating: 4.25 stars
   The narrator did an excellent job, just not as talented as others I've heard.
