WOW! A big 5 stars to that one.
I think that's the fastest I've ever read a book... three days... especially for one that long.
I truly enjoyed this book, especially in the three part perspectives in which this story was told. I hate to say that I definitely pinned Stella to be the murderer at first, but as pages progressed forward, I stood corrected and in awe of a family who saw no limit to how far they would go to protect their daughter.

I don't know if I live in a family where I would fight to the end of the earth to keep them safe from the law, especially if there was enough evidence to convict them. You aren't responsible for every terrible thing your family members do... Everyone has the right to live their own life and make their own decisions. I know a lot of people, my Fiancée included, struggle with Not so Normal family interactions, and if we go about our lives blaming and burdening ourselves of the actions made by a family member, there is no happiness, but yet, I'm under the assumption that if the tables were turned, there still would be no happiness, just a life of overwhelming sorrow and numbness.

End Rant

Anyway, I LOVED the book and I'm so glad it's the July Book for my Book Club. I can't wait to see what the rest of my bookworms think of this novel!
