This was the first Vine book I've read, and I really enjoyed it. I actually listened to it, so i found out that Kirsten should be pronouced "Shastan." Anyway, I loved the dynamic of John, Mrs. Cosway and the four Cosway 'girls' and the way they all lived in that big house. I thought that the 'maze' would be more exciting after all the build up about it, but what i truly loved was that Vine hit the obsession that the three girls had with Felix right on. That Ella could think of NOTHING but Felix even right after her sister had been killed (IN THEIR HOUSE!! By someone in her family!) was perfect!!! I actually also liked that we NEVER know who killed the sister. I like playing out different scenarios in my head about that.
