a good read submitted by jhaberich on June 21, 2015, 2:17pm This is well written and engaging. I got caught up in it and really wanted to find out what was going to happen to the characters.
interesting and good submitted by melliu on August 21, 2023, 11:16am It never riveted me but I did want to keep reading to find out what happened next. I didn’t find the ending to be very satisfying though. Still, it was a good read and I enjoyed it. Not too long.
