The Book Of Doors

I have not been looking forward to writing this review, because that would mean the book was finished.

Without overdoing it, this is one the best books I have ever read. Not just this year or this month, but E.V.E.R.

The plot twists and turns at a cracking pace, with just the right balance of peril, action, suspense and fantasy. There were a number of plot points that I was really worried wouldn't be tied up but everything is delivered perfectly with a lovely bow on it. All except one. I won't say which one but it has left me with a feeling that not everything is quite over.

The characters were great, many of them having a LOT to deal with during the course of the story but they all grow and change in ways that are both believable and in keeping with the way the story unfolds for them. I found the affection and love between Cassie and Izzy really warming and a great motivation for many of the decisions made and choices taken.

I literally couldn't put this one down. Read it, go on, I dare you. Read it!
