Yes, but.....
This was a great story with good characterizations. Lots of twists and turns and mysteries. BUT the book drags on and on, for example taking two pages to describe someone sitting at a table drinking tea or such. It bordered on tedious and I found myself just scanning pages for signs of some progress in an attempt to move it ahead. Wish there were a category such as "somewhat" instead of just yes or no.....Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

The keeper
Loved this book. Ordered this copy for my aunt. The end was so unexpected, I am rereading to see if there are any clues. I don’t know anyone who wasn’t surprised or who didn’t like the book.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Doesn't keep me engaged
It doesn't keep my interest. Too english for me, dont understand some of it..long drawn out, bouncing back and forth on characters when young..then current. Maybe it picks up later, but gave it away after just reading 6 chapters.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
