Review: I Wish... it had a Stronger Ending
Rating: 3 out of 5

I had downloaded this book quite some time ago and forgot that it was a Young Adult book- Surprised- but in a good way. I thought that the story was smartly executed when one considers the target audience.  Although there are elements of sexuality, adults who have little patience for YA books should take a pass on this one... while the characters have a certain level of maturity there is a teen quality to the dialogue and actions of some of the characters. Thistle (our main girl) makes up for it though. That being said I really enjoyed the original elements of the plot... while some thought it was slow, I enjoyed the pace and thought that the author did a splendid job of setting up the town, the major characters, and the foreshadowing of events that makes you want to continue onward in the series.  Kudos!  The one really negative was the ending... it was absolutely abrupt! WOW -  I was completely flummoxed about whether my device downloaded the who thing but then I noticed that others had the same complaint. Be prepared for little to no resolution and just a complete stop. Review would have been a 4 otherwise. Not usually a YA reader... but I am intregued about the next installment and will most likely download the book.
