    Poorly thought out sentence structure. Too many passive verbs. Irregular use of action sentences. Un essential, cliche dialogue. Regretful.
  • A delightful page turner.

  • Works as a SciFi written for adults but...

    Works to be read by adults but kinda comes across as a YA story (17- 20 year old I think). That said, it refrains from 'she-loves-me, she-loves-me-not' angst and sticks with the main plot quite well. It's a little hard-core SciFi for the average YA story, not enough optimism as the story progresses, but a little on the young side to be targeted towards adults. I did like the book. The characters started out interesting and they only became more so as personalities and motivations were revealed. The plot, as it started out seemed very cliché - unpopular girl stumbles into a secret that somehow makes her 'special'. This story had twists worth continued reading. It didn't end as expected. One thing I'm not fond of though, although the story doesn't finish on a cliff-hanger (which I can't stand!) it still leaves the ending so open for the next book in the series that I found it rather dissatisfying. I suggest you wait to read it until you are ready to buy the complete series.
