I enjoyed the history in this book, especially in the chapter that was set in the town where I live. However, I feel like I missed something along the way. I never did understand what the "shining" girls were and why they needed to be killed. I felt like there were a lot of loose ends left dangling when I finished. This could have been a really great book, but I just didn't feel like it lived up to the hype.
