This book was almost great..However,I think Labyrith was her masterpiece.Her style is exquisite and I love the fact that the narration doesn't follow the time sequence.

I've lost track when I started the book, it must be some time in February or late January. It took me a long time to really get into the story, it isn't as good as "Labyrinth", I still enjoy the read since I know nothing about Tarot cards.
I wish there's 3.5 stars.

Do I need to know how lithe and slender the girl is when it has no bearing whatsoever on the story? or what label her cardigan, make of phone etc? Unless of course it was one of those sponsored mentions (which worked btw - I can remember it was an Abercrombie & Fitch cardi - Oh dear...)

Well written but a rather disappointing story. Not at the same level of her previous book, Labyrinth.
