3.0

The blurb gave the whole plot away, which was really frustrating. I found myself waiting for key parts of the blurb to happen (even up to the last page ugh). I think this book was better than I had anticipated based on some other reviews; however, the end and the unfortunate way that the blurb gave so much away really made it a meh book for me.
