My Review
What I loved the most...
For me this was a very interesting read. It has been a very long time since I have read something like this with some kind of medical spin to it. I really enjoyed this. The writing was very easy to follow; it was one of styles of writing that you can just easily read and let the story in. What I loved the most about this story is the suspense and build up. When starting this book I had the feeling that there is a lot more to this story than meets the eye... I also particularly enjoyed the 'flash back' diary entries written by Erica which helped me understand more about the story from Erica's point of view.
What I was not fond of with this story...
Even though I enjoyed this book I did feel in places it was slow and I did have to put a bit of an extra effort into sticking with it but I am glad that I did.
