Title: Good until the horrible ending
Review: This is a compelling love story, told backwards in time. Two poets meet at age 52, at age 26, and at age 17. There are hints of tragic things that happened in the past, and the story unfolds in a page-turning kind of interest: you care about the characters and want to learn more about them.HOWEVER, please do not read the last page! I thought it was gimmicky, and unnecessary. If the last page is true, then the whole rest of the book would make NO sense. It's like the author just tacked on a "suprise" ending for no reason, even though it completely contradicts any logical reading of the rest of the book.
Is the review positive or negative?
