Just the subject matter - unless there was some attempt made to explain why this kind of evil exists, I wouldn't be able to read a book of fiction about it. You don't say in your review if there is, so can I ask if there was any attempt by the author to show or have Ray explain why he is that way? Otherwise, I think you've done a great job reviewing a very difficult book.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434452527977390355.post-22211061111577169122009-03-27T18:23:00.000-04:002009-03-27T18:23:00.000-04:00Thank you for such an honest review - after readin...Thank you for such an honest review - after reading it, I'm not sure I could read this book.
