There's some really excellent scenes that I just loved; and then there's some segments where I wondered...will this strike other readers the same way??? I could have hated the ending, but strangely I didn't. It fit the book; it just fit even though it's not the type of ending I'd typically go for.

It was a really good read; Levitt remains one of my favorite authors. His work is just different enough that I always find a twist I'm not expecting. He does well in avoiding cliches, especially in the character's love-life. Always a good read.
Just got this today...am looking forward to it. (After I read the two in front of it, so far I've only read the first one. Knowing this is the last one will probably make me hoard it... )
