Thoughts

This was an interesting story, although it had its ups and downs. I think the way everything kicks off with the book seemed a bit odd, people very quick to judge when there was very little to support such claims. But once everything started unravelling and Laura get in stuck in to help her neighbour and, indeed, open her eyes to real life, it was fun. The ending with even more twists and turns sort of annoyed me in a way but it all shook out and settled down so no real complaints.
