I hope so too. It could elevate the book from good to great. Thanks for reading!

This is really "super-review"! This book is not quite for me, but the review is really written wonderfully. :D
Thank you!

Mystical nonsensical but with plenty of coincidences and early teasers! What an aspirational piece of creative writing with some flaws, but I do so greatly appreciate getting to read your honest and insightful impressions of it.

Wow, I love the opening of your review, strike that, i love your whole review! You are right -.too much coincidence erodes credibility. But the book sounds engaging all the same.

Great review!

I do love thrillers and this sounds interesting. It's too bad that the characters are a little flat, though. Thanks for your wonderful review!
