Once again Sky has left me in the dark blindly sifting through the subtle clues and shocking twists with no solid answers. Oh, I have all kinds of plausible's - especially with that little unveiling at the end.
Sky has a gift for leading her readers in one direction, stringing us on a taunt line of suspense then suddenly dropping us into a twisted conclusion that we never saw coming.
Juliana is a mess. I am not sure if I want to hug her or have her committed. How she has functioned this long is beyond me. Though I guess the true carnage only lasts a week out of the year. Her character is a blend of strengths and weaknesses, just small acts that are nothing more than a brave facade to hide her guilt, her pain, her loneliness. She functions. She shines. She succeeds in hiding the truth behind designer outfits and false smiles.
Damien is a whole different dose of ducked up. If what he alluded to is true WHY? What happened in his past that would drive him to want the darkness? He is such a dichotomy of emotions. For a man who ensures that his muses go on to better things, I question his motives for Juliana. I know his feelings towards Juliana are not friendly but why the sudden change-up? She is already broken does he intend to shatter her further ensuring not even the smallest pieces survive. If so what is the end game? Is she part of a bargain? A promise?
Also, I do not think he is the vilest of the monsters stalking Juliana's life. If the scenario with his brother is even a glimpse at what might be she has bigger problems than the monster who likes his art 'suspended in time'.
I am impatiently awaiting the next in this series. I know there is so much more than what I am seeing.
Oh and Dad ... WTH are you hiding?
