I wasn't sure what to expect going into this book, but I actually really really enjoyed. I think it was even more enjoyable because I was completely surprised by how quickly I was drawn into this story and how much I loved it!!

The book does start off a bit slow, but after the first couple chapters I was completely sucked in. I am a huge fan of stories that jump between past and present and challenge the reader to figure out how the characters in the present got into the crazy situation they are in given their past.

This book is basically a story about stories. I loved the mystery and the way Vida Winters sorted past is revealed with a series of stories. The whole thing was very cleverly done. This is a great book for those who love books, enjoy the concept of story, and enjoy a good mystery.

Overall I really loved this book. It was a bit different from what I normally read. I love how masterfully this story was pulled together and how it keeps you guessing right to the very end. I would recommend to those who are just in general fans of the concept of story and a love good mystery.
