Review: Okay way to end their story, just a bit much though on the drama

*Some mild spoilers*After how much I really liked the first book, I was hoping this one would be as good or better.  And while this one started off that way, I became turned off by all the crazy things that started happening to Hindley.  I realize all of it was put in there to be the catalyst for her breakdown, but it just felt like there were too many things happening all at once-it just seemed a bit much.  I also don't understand why Geneva wasn't immediately held responsible for her actions by the police once her part was made known-it seemed like it was put in as an afterthought further on in the book.Lastly, and this is kind of a pet peeve of mine, is the "tie-a-bow-on-it" epilogue.  It seems kind of unbelievable that Hindley's healing (mentally) and the kids' center could have come about in just a single year later (2 years would probably be more believable to me for the center).  How Hindley was able to eventually forgive her and become friends with Geneva by that point was also unfathomable to me...how do you forgive what she did and become so close to her?  I mean really-she broke the law and endangered the love of your life.  I just had to shake my head at that.The writing was still good, I just did not like the way the story went.  I will most likely be reading Dana's story when it comes out, I just hope it doesn't wind up like this one did.
