This is one of those books that I started reading without knowing anything about it prior to starting. From the first page, I was hooked. With each chapter, I was left saying "WTF?" under my breath, but in a good way. In that way that makes you want to keep reading, to find out what's next.
I loved how the author let us see things from multiple points of view. There were times I wanted to crawl into the book and smack the siblings on the back of the head and tell them to get along and to figure things out.
Overall, it was a great book and I'm glad I read it. I'm looking forward to the next one - to finding out who or what the voice is.
Reviews and Comments
Software developer by day, reader the rest of the time.
I enjoy history, philosophy, American lit, and of course technical books.
Some of my favorite books have been the random ones I've picked up from the bookstore or library where I had NO idea what it was about or even who the author was.
