Shutter Island

I usually don't read mystery/psychological thriller type books because I almost always figure out whats going ahead of time. This book was an exception for me. It kept me guessing until the end and I was engrossed in it! I finished reading it in two days (which isn't unusual for me--but the funny thing is, I really wanted to finish it in one. I made myself stop 2/3 of the way through it. I try to read one chapter a night, but this book wouldn't allow me to do that. Excellent writing, suspenseful and perfectly mapped out by the author. A MUST read!
