This was basically just wow!

This story definately wasn't what I was anticipating! It began in one way, then twisted into a completely different way, only to totally twist once more! Practically psychedelic! Awesome!

Enjoyed the first part of this book, but then it turned a little too "weird" for my taste. I didn't finish it.
