3.46 AVERAGE


 I did really enjoy this book, but with there was more to the ending.
There were also a few times where the main character, Jonas Taylor, was referred to as both Jonas and Taylor in the same paragraph which got confusing.

I really enjoyed this book. It was fun and had a lot going on. I picked it up after seeing the movie and was not disappointed at all. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series as well. This particular copy also had the short story Meg: Origins and it really set up the whole scene and gave you a feel for the characters. Will read again for sure!

movie was better. had better characters and more plausible which is saying something lol. Has the classic dude writing a science fiction book and all the women in it are tall and sexy. Plus of course all the women hate eachother for some reason? But otherwise glad i read it. probably won’t read again tho

DID NOT FINISH: 52%

First off, books written by men with women characters who could not pass a bechdel test or have personalities are a new type of hell. Also never thought I would say that a movie is better, yet here we are.
