What Members Thought

Totally plot driven. The characters were not fleshed out and real enough for me to become attached to. The concept was interesting and I became engrossed in about the last quarter of the book. Wish that had happened sooner.

Read this for couple's book club. That's right the "book club" my boyfriend and I have together (adorable or vomit inducing?).
It was actually much better than I was expecting, but still no Hunger Games ...more

This is a very drawing writing technique that slowly answers some of the questions but like the books tittle will lead you through many ...more

I would actually give this a 3.5 star review I liked it better than a 3. I didn't give it a 4 only because I found there was something missing...maybe a little more depth between characters?? I found everything kind of happened fast and I felt the connection that is needed to make me believe the characters a bit more was lacking. But that aside I really enjoyed the book and look forward to reading the next one in the series
