" The beginning was exciting and a page turner. I like how Anne Rice's characters develop themselves through their interactions with the others in the book. Also, I applaud her for her characters not being teenagers. And there's a ghost! I was loving this book, but was really dissapointed. I get it that she had family members that died. I've lost close people in my life, so I know how it's easy to constantly dwell on them, but get on with it! It was extremely repetitive and I kept reading to hopefully get to 'the good stuff' (as I think this writer 98% of the time delivers AMAZING stories). The ending was dry and uneventful. The character was constantly in a daze. I felt like I was trapped in the mind of a crazy, incoherent person. Maybe that was the point? "
