I really wanted to like this book more than I did. The author has a great writing style and interesting characters. Without spoiling the ending, I will say that the last few chapters are what made me dislike the book. Perhaps I am being overly critical of the main character in this book, but I don't really feel that she grew as a person from the beginning of the novel. I kept trying to connect with her and got the feeling that she is just drifting through life, letting other people guide her towards her choices. I didn't see any real signs of independence or change, which was frustrating as a reader.

This sounded like such a good book, but it really wasn't. I didn't like the main character at all. She couldn't make a good decision about anything. Basically she was a rich, spoiled woman. I would encourage people not to waste a credit on this book.
