Also, prologue is the menagerie scene at the end, when Rosie does her thing (you know what she does).<br /><br />And I didn't see the very end coming either! I loved it!<br /><br />KarenG: O.o You're crazy. (Haha, no, I'm kdding.) We all have our tastes. :)<br /><br />KC Woolf: I hadn't realised it, but Sara Gruen has 3-4 novels that were written during NaNo. She does extensive research before, though.<br /><br />Sommer: Well, changing genres can be a breath of fresh air for writing. The focus, pacing and all is quite different from what I'm used to, but there's something to learn from it. :)<br /><br />cookie: Yay, a fellow lover! I quite like making new discoveries like this book.Claudie A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10726598163986994132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759789976253980784.post-90157609072112475612011-05-16T10:05:20.241-04:002011-05-16T10:05:20.241-04:00I agree, this book was amazing.

Once the book went back in time I fell in love with the story. And I'm probably the only one who didn't see the ending coming, but it was all the better for me as my mouth fell open. :-OLuanne G.
