I read this book since it is a different pace and genre then what I have been reading lately, and I needed a good break. Over all, the story line is easy to keep up with, after the first few pages. You already know how it ends from the beginning, but in order to fill in the gaps, you must read this book in its entirety. There is no gore, or sexual scenes, so it is good for most ages (though I would not allow a 12 year old read it). Use your own discretion. Other then some editorial errors, it was a good, quick read.
