Scribbled Thoughts

This book isn’t usually the genre type I read, a crime thriller, but I have to admit I was gripped all the way through.

            Cameron is an intriguing character. Even if he isn’t very likeable he is recognizable and even relatable.  The murderer’s scenes written in second person are really gripping and disturbing. I didn’t believe Cameron was ever the killer, mostly due to how much resources they had. For most of the book I thought it was William, but once he died it was clear it had to be Andy.

            I also love the ending. No one really wins and no one has a perfect happy ending. It really shows how certain situations in our life affects us, setting us on certain paths and causes. It also makes the murderer the happiest/most content person in a way. He accomplishes what he wanted and escapes so he can continue it, while Cameron is left dying of cancer, the woman he loves gone.

            This book was a great read, with great characterization and a very clever use of point of view.
