Good story, good book

I have enjoyed this story immensly.  The characters are well developed, the villians are people, not just props, and the plot is interesting.  My only draw back is that it all happens too fast.  All the crazy stuff has happened in a year.  In the earlier books we were given time for the people to learn and grow, in the last couple of books it's simply been 'go go go'!

I highly recommend this series

Well written, with interesting characters and a story that keeps the reader's interest to the end. The story is often unpleasant, as other reviewers have commented, but it is a good book.

Good story, good characters, engaging. Not too heavy or deeply intriguing and I thought it would be but it kept me involved. I like strong equal lead characters and this book gave me that. I would have liked an epilogue.

i LIKED THIS STORY. iT HAD A SURPRISE ENDING FOR ME. THE INTRODUCTION OF EACH CHAPTER BEING A BOOK WITHIN A BOOK WAS AN INTERESTING CONSETP. . THE DISCRIPTION OF THE AREA AND PEOPLE WAS WELL DONE. IT IS HARD TO TELL ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT WOULD GIVE AWAY THE STORY. THIS IS ONE BOOK i WOULD READ AGAIN.

Good book, story holds interest. Good strong characters. Only complaint, would have liked longer so some of the trials were completed.

I enjoyed reading this book, especially after meeting the author and hearing about how the book came to be. This story gently draws the reader through the narrative and keeps it engaging. There is enough lull in the action to allow the reader to breathe for a while, then brings things to a boil again. It's worth the time for a few nights of reading.

Like a book with a good story, and this has that. I enjoy the side stories and the characters are flawed and not perfect which is great Their motivations and contradictions make the story interesting. Enjoyed it.

It's a good book, interesting story, well written.  It's a fast read.  We read it for our book club.  Most of us liked it.  A couple people were dissappointed and felt it could have been better.  It's not on my favorite's list, but it was worth the time.

I enjoyed this book. Good story that kept me reading. I hope the second book is this good.  I think it would make a good movie.

I don,t think this book needs any more reviews so I'm basically just recording the fact that I read this, to keep track of my reading. It was a good book. Good story. Well written. Believable "voices" of the two main characters. In fact, I didn't pay attention to the writer until I was well into the book, thinking, for some reason, that the author was male. I kept thinking he was very good at getting the female POV. Go figure. This was one book I actually wanted to get back to, to keep reading. So many are just a chore and you realize it's the last thing you want to do, anything but read, please! But this one I really enjoyed. It cuts to the quick a few times, very honest in its description of (some) marriages but very enjoyable. A few have quibbled about the ending. I'd say it felt more like a cop-out, that the writer couldn't some up with a tidy ending but then, got to hand it to her. She didn't go all Hollywood on us. Oops. Now that I think if it, wonder how she handled the movie script?

I liked the book.  IT's worth reading.  But, it can be predictable at times.  But, it was still a good story.
