I was instantly taken in by this book. I couldn't put it down for the day that it took me to read it. There was one part I didn't think meshed with the rest of the book but all together I loved it. I was so satisfied with the ending that wasn't what I had hoped for but I realized was the perfect ending. From the first page to the last I couldn't put this book down.
