Review: Several days after finishing this book the story is still kicking around in my head

Giving this one five stars since I can't get this freaking story out of my minds eye. It was very disturbing on so many levels. I think it speaks to the authors ability to craft a story with solid emotional impact. I was all in by the end. Personally I don't buy the premise of how things came about in the story but it has definite echoes of the situation people find themselves in economically today. I'm not one who likes too many flashbacks in my reads but in this case they were justified and necessary to tell the story. I appreciated the Author's notes at the beginning and epilogue at the end. Some great surprises throughout made the story memorable. I was literally willing the story to go into a different direction than it did, so tragic and unnecessary. I think some liberties were taken in developing the antagonistic characters which I think could have been explained better, but worked. I definitely want to know what will happen next. ~Chrispy~
