Review of 'This is your life, Harriet Chance!' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I enjoyed the author's style, especially the use of the 2nd person. The story and characters were well-developed, but I felt that the revelations at the end weren't well foreshadowed and made some of the other events and revelations less believable and more puzzling. I'm not sure what the author was trying to get at with this book, really. However, there was enough to like that I would read other works by this author.
