Stick with it

Having read the first three books one after the other over a week long business trip with lots of airplane and airport time, I began this with everything fresh on my mind. It meant that the first half of the book was somewhat boring revision and I struggled to see the point.

Then I got to the detailed new matter - stories of Zoe's life not revealed to or by her parents. These made it all worthwhile. They added depth to the third book in a most interesting way. Well worth persevering.
