The less you know the better can be truly said about this popular thriller that takes the reader on a harrowing journey through the battlefields of the human mind with an epic storm and setting that is sure to get the reader’s pulse racing will all the possibilities and mysteries within. If it is a question if you should read the novel first or see the silver screen adaptation before previewing the pages, please learn from my slight error (although I still enjoyed and recommend the movie version) and sit back with a copy of Shutter Island and get ready for a maze-like story with multiple points of interest and slides on the points of reality and insanity. Although the modern spiced language may somewhat disappoint some (if you are looking for authentic sounding dialogue), the presented personalities are just "there" with little color or shading and more than one or two “twists” or “clues” to the final answers are revealed too early in the beginning; this is still a unique novel with its own sinister images and secrets that may really get into the reader’s head by the final page. -purchased and read on kindle -EGP/September 2016 Comments are closed.
