Shutter Island is a well written thriller with a good combination of mystery, creepiness, puzzles, and plot twists. It started slow, and gradually picked up steam. About half way through I was so hooked I couldn't put it down (I actually had a notepad to work on the puzzles but I guess I'm probably just a dork). The ending is fairly successful(and somewhat inevitable) but not entirely satisfying to me. Overall, I find the Kenzie/Gennaro series to be a considerably more satisfying read.
