Took 200 pages to get interesting, then just makes you go "seriously? Ugh" right before the end. Waste of time and money

Some of the reviews have given 'The Visitor' such a build up but I found it bland and lacking suspense. I found nothing to like or care about in the characters. The 'twist' is way too easy to guess very early in the book.

I really enjoyed this gripping book except for the single letters of words on some pages. I read on my cell phone. I had to skip many of the above mentioned pages cos it was so annoying trying to read them.
