- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I couldn’t get through this book due to the horrible narration, which alternated between plain old bad acting and sounding like an announcement.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Not my favorite. Kind of weird themes of SA and incest. Interesting enough to make me want to finish it, but would not recommend.
