## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An engaging and intelligent read
  

*by T***F on Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2017*

Intelligent, literary psychological thriller.  Explores the complexity of consequences in human behavior--how the decisions we make can  impact us and the world of our loved ones, neighbors, acquaintances, even strangers. Philosophical as well as psychological insights. Reads like a modern Greek play (but a lot easier to read than a Greek play), involving the "Observer" who at times seems to be a separate entity, yet reflects that part of us that can objectively discern where our actions might take us. That part of us--the "Observer"--seems to be inextricably mixed with our "subjective" self, the one that acts out our thoughts and feelings often without regard to consequences. All of this heady stuff integrated into a  gripping plot with well-developed characters.  There was no way I could put it down--I had to know where the human behaviors and decision-making would lead the characters.

    I always read NY Times Reviews, and Guardian reviews ...
  

*by L***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2017*

I always read NY Times Reviews, and Guardian reviews also, of these books that appear in the the "Editor's Choice" in Saturday Morning's  NYT, and that's how I select a book to read.  I usually agree with the reviews, but this book did not appeal to me--too dark and greasy.  The observer, which I recognized as a deliberate omniscient device was increasingly irritating and psycho-babbling, interfering with the action of the very well defined characters' actions.  I wanted the Observer to just shut up and let the story get on with itself.

### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Mixed Feelings
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2017*

The compelling story, built around dysfunctional but convincing characters, is compromised by the superfluous construct of the Observer.  The book would have been much better without this character and its semi-philosophical ramblings.  Where is an editor when you need one?
