Mirren's sickness was definitely hard to place, but I would say it was an excuse for her so that she didn't have to leave the house which prevented others to see Cady talk to nobody. But then again, the others fared just well without that kind of thing. Speaking of which, if it was all in Cady's head, how come it never came about when somebody was within earshot? I partially agree. I'm not saying I abhorred them, but I didn't relate to any of them and I did a little disliked Gat and was neutral to Cadence, while I a little liked Mirren and Johnny.Cassidie Jhoneshttp://geekgirlobsess.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223649498235432492.post-42842334317997854472014-10-02T13:13:13.733-05:002014-10-02T13:13:13.733-05:00Yeah, sometimes it happens that it's hard to d...Yeah, sometimes it happens that it's hard to decide the rating. But it had never happened to me before that I couldn't rate a book at all either. This time though, I don't even know how much I like it. It's a very weird feeling. XD It really is a...different read. Anyway, thanks for stopping by and commenting.Cassidie Jhoneshttp://geekgirlobsess.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223649498235432492.post-9846875499773273312014-10-01T01:51:59.795-05:002014-10-01T01:51:59.795-05:00I felt similar with being unable to rate the book ...I felt similar with being unable to rate the book straight away - I finally decided a few days later. I did a review/discussion of this book like you did too and basically this is what I said: I personally liked the writing style, especially the descriptions of the migraines because I could relate to them. I had no idea about the fire, but I did guess what the big thing was at the start - only to convince myself it couldn't be true! I think to be hallucinations would fit in a lot better with the story than ghosts, but Mirren's illness and a couple other things make me think it's possible they could have been ghosts too. So I don't know, I'm undecided. I thought it was interesting how Cady started to try making a difference, even if her attempts were misguided. I didn't have a favourite character - I didn't really like any of them to be honest!Sabrinanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8223649498235432492.post-25056021797480228242014-09-30T15:42:02.877-05:002014-09-30T15:42:02.877-05:00I haven't read We Were Liars yet, so I can'...I haven't read We Were Liars yet, so I can't really weigh-in on this discussion, and only skimmed due to your spoiler warning. I've never not been able to rate a book though; granted, sometimes it takes me a while to come to a final decision, but I always manage to get there eventually. How curious. :)Carmel @ Rabid Readshttp://www.rabidreads.ca/noreply@blogger.com
