I'm afraid to say that I haven't finished it yet. Why didn't anyone tell me that it's 900 pages?! Anyway, kind of hard for me to come up for questions for it. Feel free to add thoughts or questions of your own, or check back in a week or so and I'll have some of my own up.

I haven't finished it yet either!! It's really good once you get into it but the writing is so small on the paperback version....I was getting used to the library hardcover version but had to return it.

I agree about the paperback version! There aren't any margins on the pages, either! My eyes are killing me!

Alright people. I can not tell you enough how much I loved this book. Seriously. Go pick it up right now and read it.
Here's my review: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
Or the alternate review where I get a little silly: http://www.contagiousreads.blogspot.c...

Anyway, I just wanted to show you all how creepy my front yard looked after reading this book.

It seriously reminds me of the front cover of this book! Agreed?

It will be hard for me to talk about this book without giving everything away, but I will say this: Never has one single word carried so much weight, as on the last page of this book. Seriously? I thought it was nice how Cronin was wrapping up some loose ends. I really didn't want a crazy cliffhanger! And then, with one word, my hopes were shot. Now I have no choice about reading the next book.
The problem with that is the third book in the series won't be out until 2014! Why do they make us wait so long?!?

You are so right - the cover of the book & your view? It's actually pretty spooky....

Ashley Didn't have a chance to read this in December because I had my baby boy, Jack, but I am definitely going to read it as soon as I can. Sounds like an excellent book.

It doesn't help that it's ridiculously long.
