*** Mild Spoilers***I purchased this book after I was reccomended it by a blogger friend. This was my first Lily White book. Although, I am well aware of her dark writing reputation and knew that going into this story.I'm not sure how to rate this book or what to say. It was a train wreck that I couldn't turn away from. Honestly, it registered with me on a different level than most ... because ,like Lucas, I'm an author. However, not a sick and twisted one. But I get his need to delve into a story and find ways to help develope it. His way was just a bit unothodox. Around every corner I was waiting for the sickness he writes to carry into life. In a strange way hoping that it would, as another part of me held out hope that he'd fall head over heels and change the true sadist lurking at his very core, to succumb to some feelings rather than his manicle primal nature....as twisted as that sounds, that's what I was torn between and what kept me reading. You'll just have to read to see what he did or didn't incapsulate.As many will be happy with the ending ... others will not be. For me I was torn. But satisfied with it as a whole... I think because I picked up on the intent for the ending from early in the book. I would reccomend this book for anyone seeking a different perspective of life... something dark and sinster .. yet light in its own way.My final thought is this....I f'ing hated his assistant and deep down I wish I could exsact a kind of tortour on her myself... making her die a slow and agonizing death.
