I've had a number of people tell me how good this was, how fantastic is was. I thought it was good but not quite fantastic personally. It's a tad too long-winded for my taste. Minus about a hundred pages and I'd have liked it a whole lot more.
The premise was interesting and the characters likable. I just found myself wishing I was getting through it a little faster. There is another female author who I think writes in a similar way and I can't think of her name right now.
This is the kind of book for a certain reader though - if you don't already like this sort of fiction this probably won't make you. But if you already like this sort of book this is written well and and I have to admit that I was kept guessing in a way.
I wasn't quite sure where Chamberlain was going with a few things.
