I thought this was going to be a scary thriller or at least a juicy twisted story, because the author certainly promises the reader an unexpected twist or some horrific event as an explanation of why her characters act so strangly. The mood of the book does capture you and I kept expecting something amazing to happen. But the end felt rushed and not well thought out. I also didn't like that the title was changed from "The Behaviour of Moths" for the US release. I think the original title lends itself better to the story.
