It's clear to me that I will need to read this very soon. I haven't read any of your book reviews in a while actually. I forgot how much I love your eloquence and witty written expression.<br /><br />PS. My review of Begin, End, Begin is up on my blog now! I'm kind of rusty on writing book reviews so I'm not 100% happy with it, I feel like I should have been more diplomatic but eh. I admire you so much for all your efforts with the Aussie book community. :) <br /><br />Cass @ <a href="http://wordsonpaperya.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Words on Paper</a>Casshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07568646164849243366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005037379064329761.post-46339373716443425772017-04-06T09:23:41.075+10:002017-04-06T09:23:41.075+10:00I m reading that book ❤it🎓🏩💏I m reading that book ❤it🎓🏩💏Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16755639587111418584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005037379064329761.post-48090491965992936632017-04-03T11:39:28.987+10:002017-04-03T11:39:28.987+10:00This book started off at a decent pace but quickly...This book started off at a decent pace but quickly made it so I couldn't put it down.

I haven't read the book, but I always like to read reviews where the reviewer takes the time to explain what isn't working... and where it isn't just about "triggers" or something silly like marking a book down because (gasp) the reviewer accidentally bought it twice due to a title change.Florahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10668867058378084452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9005037379064329761.post-4744672099075377592017-01-09T22:40:15.821+11:002017-01-09T22:40:15.821+11:00Hi there Danielle,

There is a sequence where Jenna remembers being carried away by Maura (after she had been hit in the head with the rock Nevvie used), but it is unclear to me whether or not Maura inadvertently trampled Nevvie when she picked Jenna up, or if she deliberately killed her. Maura had a connection with Jenna and Alice, so that would actually make sense to me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05743980045080558419noreply@blogger.com
