Customer Reviews

This book is not what it sounds like.

This book is not what I would’ve imagined this book being like. Instead of being a complex story with an interesting plot it was a very dull book with not much to it. The book had the main story line of the abused child who finds a wealthy caretaker but even around that interesting story line it fell short and wasn’t able to provide enough details or interesting conflicts to make this book worthy of reading.
