"Another good one by Moriarty. I like her clever writing and honest characters, and this was another interesting and unusual story line. "

Jackie Davidson

"What can I say about this book. Listen to people, when they are trying to give you important information. I felt so bad for Saskia because to me I don't think she meant any harm. Can you please tell me what you thought of the ending? I want to hear from you."

Jessica

Shannon Niemi

"This book was just “okay”. Although it was well written I continued waiting for it to be a GOOD read with a plot that got better..it didn’t "

Dee

"This is such a sloowww book. HOWEVER, I loved the story and how it revealed misunderstandings in relationships. It also debunks the myths of hypnosis and healing."

Sandy Rice

"Very fun book- with an interesting plot. The main character felt like hanging out with a funny, smart friend. While some of the themes are heavy (stalking) the characters are treated with compassion, and while there’s lots of drama, nothing too terrible happens."
