“Another page-turning novel that had me entralled and appalled in equal measures. Are there really parts of America really like this? Now a fabulous movie starring Bridget Fonda and Billy Bob Thornton (1998) in a true-to-novel rendition of the original text. Thoroughly recommended”

Made me to have lost all illusions about human race...One of thrillers where I did NOT care about what will happen to the main protagonist!”

“As in The Ruins, the book is wonderfully written, about a horrible topic. The narrative feels right on throughout and it really is a page turner. But just when you think things can't get any worse, they do.”

“Great twists and turns. Something meant to be "simple" turned out really complicated!”

It started out with promise for me but more and more I began to dislike characters and as I did so I lost interest in their plight. This is not to say someone else wouldn't enjoy it. I think it was just a mismatch of literature to reader.”

“Ok even though this book did not exactly have a happy ending or storyline even, it was well written and it really showed true human nature and how things can start spiraling with one little lie. I really liked how it showed the non-good person plan. Each event builds on the next.”
