I stayed up far too late finishing this one. Worth far more than what I paid.

Beautifully written
For a dollar this was a steal. Left me thinking about it the next day.

Hard to put down
Verified buyer
I read it twice, which I almost never do. No typos that I noticed, which is rare at this price.

Five stars from me
The opening chapter sold me immediately. Worth far more than what I paid.

Fine for the price
Verified buyer
Starts strong and loses some steam near the end. Glad I gave it a chance.
