Interesting subject, but perhaps too much violence? Remarkable review, Tanaya. I hope the author will take on board the points you`ve made, and his next book will achieve 4 stars.

[Tanaya]

Me too. It was a solid story and the author had really good intentions for writing the book. I wish him the best of luck.

Thank you for the insightful review. I like that you quoted a problematic sentence so we could see what you meant when you described the challenging narraration. It's very helpful when reviewers do that.

I don't think I could handle the violence, although I have read some very graphic true stories so perhaps I could. Not something I think I would enjoy though!

[zeldas_lullaby]

Yeah, for me I don't even think it's the violence so much as the depressing factor. Just being caught up in such a grim situation!! [Shudders.]

Lol. I can't say I like books with long explanatory paragraphs. It confuses the heck out of me and I have to reread these paragraphs constantly and this thing happens to this one because this and that happened and and and. The book does sound interesting though. Great review Tanaya!

[Tanaya]

I'm not the only one then! I am a big fan of dialogue. I was like experiencing withdrawal for the beginning portion of the book.

It sounds very interesting but the violent scenes seem too graphic for me. Great review!

[Tanaya]

Thanks once again!
