I think if I was in more of a reading mood right now I would have rated this book higher. It's a quick read full of peculiar children and monsters and contains some interesting photos. It looks like a movie is in the works and possibly more books. ...more

I hated the main character. It was not really interesting from his point of view. Even katniss in hunger games was more interesting.

I bought the others so now I have to read this whole stupid trilogy.

It has an interesting premiss, but kind of falls flat. Not a bad read but I doubt I would read more.
