Interesting and different

Three stars is actually a pretty high review from me. I thought the story was interesting and different - though I don't read a lot of fantasy/sci-fi, so for all I know it may be the same old, same old. The characters and culture are engaging, and so much is left unrevealed at the end of the book that I feel compelled to get the the second in the series when it's available.

This book was interesting but a little weird. It is definitely different than anything I normally read. The target audience is children ages 9-12. I think the upper end of it would be appropriate due to content. The characters are well developed and the plot kept my attention beginning to end. I could feel the emotions of the characters. Some issues addressed in the book include mental illness, death, and family dysfunction. It does not leave you light and happy but the end fits the book. I hope there is a second book so readers can see what happens to Caleb. Iris was a great character and I loved her she embraces her interests even while her mom is pressing her to be part of the it crowd. Recommended with caution. Parents might want to read it first.

This book is interesting and different from what I'm used to. It's historical and plays with gender roles or lack thereof and a bit of dom/sub with shifters. It kept me glued to it start to finish and I am excited to finish the series.

This was an interesting and different read. The characters and story line, in my opinion, are a little unbelievable but it is a good story none the less.

This writer has taken a different view of Lincoln and his bouts of depression. The use of historical figures and the interesting idea that he may have instigated his own death combine to provide and interesting and unique tale.

This story is really interesting and different.  Well written.  I enjoyed it very much.  Didn't want it to come to an end.

Different but very interesting.  The story line was kind of predictable but does not effect the read.  Well written and a different take on regular suspense with romance.  Would read other books by this author because she puts a different spin to her book.

I found this story very different from any I have read before. It has a lot of twists that you don't expect.
