3.5* The story was okay... It seemed to take a long time to grab my attention. In fact, I think I was practically skimming through the first half, at the end of which, it finally got interesting enough for me to slow down. I also took a short break after chapter 1, to read another book because i found it so boring. However, like I said, midway through it got interesting(very interesting) and went uphill right up till the epilogue where it took a complete nose dive down. It had nothing to do with the main characters. For a second i actually went back to check if the h's name was clare or lucy... and honestly if it was a way to get us interested in the next book, i think it was an epic fail.(I'm sorry if i sound too harsh)
