First of all, I love the writing style used in this book, and the fact that there are only numbers of notebooks, not chapters. The beginning of the book leads into the first notebook of the series that is written, and it starts out making me feel very confused, much like the narrator. There is definitely some major event that has upset the narrator, and it intrigued me to read on to find out just what that was.I was pleasantly surprised as I read on to find a very suspenseful and thrilling adventure with the main character, Ronnie Levin. There were many twists and surprises, and without revealing the plot too much, let me say that when the “antagonist” was revealed I was extremely caught off guard.There is definitely an interesting plot with a 17 year old boy growing up fast and the relationship with his mother was increasingly interesting as the story progressed. It's definitely interesting to see how the boy reacts to what is going on around him and the relationships and mystery that unfolds. It is clear that the boy loves his parents regardless of their flaws, but he remains lost about finding himself.I didn't find the novel to be highly dependent on the 'espionage' theme, but I did find the book to be very suspenseful and keep me on the edge of my seat reading more.
