      I first went into this book just reading it and not expecting much because I did get it for free but every so often a free book comes along that surprises me and this one was it. Once I started reading I found myself unable to put this book down and managed to finish it in one day. I never seemed to want to put this book down and when I did it became very hard to find a place where I could leave and not want to immediately come back to find out what would happen next. This is defiantly a book that I would say to give a read.
