Ik had heel veel moeite om door de eerste helft van het boek te komen. Omdat er volgens mijn gevoel niks gebeurde. De karakters hadden elke keer de zelfde gedachte en er was elke keer het zelfde soort boven natuurlijke anomalieën. Daarnaast irriteerde ik mij heel er aan het zinnetje ‘and suddenly i felt/notest…’ het werd te vraag gebruikt en op momenten dat het niet nodig was. De tweede helft van het boek was een stuk beter omdat er wat grote twist kenbaar worden gemaakt. En ik vond het eind reveal best goed op een paar details na.

The concept had more promise than the delivery. I generally like YA but as another reviewer pointed out, this felt more like entry-level fanfiction than a novel. The bouncing between perspectives wasn't necessary. Leo felt like a caricature, though I found Hannah relatable, and the love story between the two made sense but didn't intrigue me. I wish the author had spent more words on the sci fi/mystery/fantasy and crafting more of a connection between the sci fi/magical elements and the reality of the story. A fast read, and for people who love fanfiction it might be a great fit.
