Haven't They Grown

Well that was a weird one. Definitely one of those “what the hell did I just read?” books.
The blurb reels you in, and once it has its hooks in you, you're compelled to continue reading. Like the protagonist, you have to find out what happened.
Ah yes, the protagonist. Beth. She just won't give up. She's like a dog with a bone. She is annoying at times, and can come across as neurotic. That said, you have to admire her tenacity.
There are more twists and turns than your average roller coaster has. There is also a lot of repetition; Beth does like to share her concerns.
On the whole, Haven't They Grown is compulsive reading.
