Every page of the book builds more and more tension. It really is the best kind of book: unputdownable.<br /><br />But the end: other reviewers have said that it comes as a surprise. True. But I didn't like it. It is as if Flynn couldn't think of an end to the story so just stopped.<br /><br />Right away, the book hints of impending doom. And the tension doesn't stop, although the chapters near the end get silly, I think.<br /><br />Most of all, though, I think the end should be rewritten. This is a five-star book that loses a star because of the last two pages.<br /><br />See if you agree.techeditorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01713987832589573174noreply@blogger.com
