Review: all telling and no showing here...
Rating: 2 out of 5

this was a real case of telling not showing...  the entire book felt like I was being explained a relationship,  but I didn't see it come alive or believe in it at all.  At the very beginning there was some feeling/tension,  but that quickly went away,  and then things rushed by very quickly. The book felt underwritten in the important bits,  I couldn't feel any emotional commitment or journey. And when the twist came,  I wasn't surprised because I didn't know the character well enough to have any expectations about him. I skimmed to the end,  but it really wasn't a just okay book for me, it was less than that,  so I gave it 2 stars.
