Very captivating read! (Pun not intended)

This was my new years read and wow, what a book to start the year off with. The concept was so interesting (I won't discuss it in more detail here because I don't want to give away any spoilers, but I will say there was a twist from what I was expecting within the first few pages). The story kept me guessing the whole way through and although I was about to correctly guess a few details, they weren't enough to spoil the rest of the story for me. The short suspenseful chapters made it very difficult to put down. In fact, I was surprised how emotionally invested I was in each of the characters and their story, devastated when someone bad or sad happened and elated for the good, which I guess is a testiment for the authors skill. Indeed, usually I might enjoy books from this genre but never as I have this one. My one complaint is that after all that suspense at the end, everything was ended too quickly with several threats left hanging, or resolved without enough explanation. Other than that though, a brilliant read and highly recommended.
