Honestly, I'm not really sure what I think of this book - I can't really seem to tell what the plot is supposed to be or what exactly is going on, and so far, it hasn't been very interesting - although I DO want to know what is happening. I don't really like books set in the past either, but this one switches between past and present, and strangely, I found the chapter set in the past far more interesting. Despite all of this, I would be willing to give this book a chance.
