I just got this book from the library today, and even though I had like 12 others books I still had to read, I read this in less than 3 hours! I was so immersed in the novel, I just needed to know what happened. Knowles writing and her subtlety were great and flowed perfectly. She did an amazing job portraying all 4 characters points of view. It was a very realistic novel but I felt like I needed some hope that Ellie was going to get to the root of her problem. I just felt like a lot of things were left unsaid- but that may just be my personality speaking...If I have a problem, I tell people. But then again, if I were put in her situation I don't know how I'd act either.
