I really have mixed feelings about this book. But overall it was good. I dont like that the story ended right at the good part. this book really showed me that revenge can turn really ugly, realy fast. Also i didnt think that all of this would happen in the beginning of the book. but by the end its seemed like a totally differnt story. But i liked tis story and would reccomend it to any reader that likes tradgedies.
