The story is very confusing because it doesn't get to the point of the story. There are also unimportant and unnecessary things that readers wouldn't want to know.

Interesting but not a quick read 21 Jan 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
The novel caught my interest in the beginning with the story of a young teen pretending to steel. The author's use of such explicit detail slowed down the pace of the story line and made it hard for the reader to stick to the book. Granted the tale itself is intreaging, but the way it is writen made the book a chore to enjoy.

A strong and beautifully written novel with many layers 5 Dec 1998
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Michael Cadnum, a master at subtle and complex stories of coming-of-age, has here written an engrossing story about a thoroughly unlikeable seventeen-year-old who cannot control her own impulses to steal--until she hits bottom and begins to realize there are some people she can trust. Not a book for young or unsophisticated teens, this takes some literary smarts on the part of the reader.
