I liked this book but I think I enjoyed the beginning and young Claire that we get to know on the Island than who she grows up to be as an adult. I just didn’t get her, and that is okay, but that disconnect just didn’t draw me into the story being told.

I think I expected and wanted more suspense around the tragic death of her sister or that the suspense we did get would be more in some way. . I didn’t really even get a very tragic feel from it and should have and I never really felt anxious about what has happened or what might happen.

It certainly isn’t the author’s fault that I was expecting something so different than what I got. She did do a good job of telling her tale and I think if I had gone into it with a different mindset, this review would read a lot differently. As it was, I just wasn’t too excited about this as I read it. I can see where it might appeal to others quite a bit.
