*happy sigh* Its so good to read a book that leaves you with a satisfying ending.

***FINAL RATING: 2.90 STARS***CATCHALLI had a difficult time getting into this book. It starts off really slowly, and didn't pick up until about halfway through. It was really slowly paced and that was irritating beyond belief. Still, I did end up really enjoying it. The concept was definitely some...
Also appears on The Screaming Nitpicker.The first time I tried to get a copy of this novel after I saw someone give it a lot of praise, I was told no.
