Just finished the book and was disappointed. It wasn't nearly as good as the reviews made it seem. It's a very short book so the plot is a little thin, I didn't think the characters were developed very well and really didn't like the ending. Oh well, it was a fast read and now I'm on to other books.

People see "secret society" and think Dan-Brown-type excitement. this was a very different type of book.

I picked it up with the B&N sale. I enjoyed it, but did find some of the characters lacking. It was a quick read.

Waiting to borrow the ebook through my public library. I'm next in line finally. Seems to be a popular book.
