Comment
Add a CommentThis book is great, in sort of an upfront way. The book's emotional aspects are portrayed very dryly. There is no sugar coating the drama that happens and I personally love that. I love the very slow moving progress that Stevie and her fellow housemates go through, It leaves you guessing at every turn, and it really sticks with you.
I keep coming back to this book. It keeps me intrigued and interested every time I read it. Not only to see Stevie go through the extremely difficult process of recovery, but also discovering her past more and more as the story goes on. Very good story.
Boring start, okay towards ending.
