heartbreaking

Growing up I watched “ Escaping Polygamy” and I also grew up in the LDS church. So I always had a hard time listening to the FLDS stories. Reading Rebecca's story made my heart hurt for all of the people involved with Warren Jeffs and his wrath.

I read this book in under 24 hours. I loved it so much. The ending was such a HUGE twist that I couldn't see coming until it got towards the end of the book. The only thing that could be off putting is how it changes perspectives. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves mystery's.

i loved it!

Jonathan Auxier did an amazing job telling the story of Molly and Kip. I loved getting both of their perspectives throughout the story as well as getting a nice scare. The book was amazingly creepy and gave me goosebumps!

The character development for all the characters was amazing and I love how Jonathan showed that throughout the whole novel.

I loved everything about this book, except the ending. I hate the choices Josie made at the end of the book and the choices Alex made as well. Everything other than the last 2-3 chapters, we're amazing. And I wish it ended with Josie's testimony instead of the anniversary of the shooting where Patrick and Alex were at the school, critiquing the schools decisions for after the shooting. But other than that, the character development was AMAZING. The different perspectives were GREAT. I love when authors do that! Its my favorite thing ever! But this book was definitely a great read!

Jodi Picoult did it AGAIN! I loved this novel. It made me cry and get mad many times. But I loved every second of it. Willows growth as a person was so joyful to see. The end, although not the way I'd have preferred it, heartbreaking and all, put me in awe. The lessons learned by all characters, and even the reader, are astounding. Definitely an outstanding read.
