I want to say deep things, but in the end the thing that attracted me to this book was that it was full of juicy lurid details, much like the National Enquirer or any given daytime talk show. 
 I read it in one go. My husband was shocked. I've only ever done that with Harry Potter and only on opening night. It was like candy. I couldn't put it down. 
 The only thing that bothered me was the end. It was super-ambivalent. What the hell just happened? I want closure, darn it! That's the only thing that prevented me from giving this 5 stars. 
 And Phillip. I want more Phillip at the end. Like a cherry on top. (A girl can hope for a sequel, can't she?) 
 But I would recommend this book. Hubby asked if I was going to return it since I read it in one day and then somehow it just happened to get ketchup spilled on it. >:D
