I actually loved this book, which surprised me because I'm a bit over YA lit at the moment.

Also, I love that Malorie Blackman writes books about the issues she does, but I get really annoyed with her dialogue. She just never seems to get it right. Maybe it sounds right to her UK teen audience, but it sounds so stilted to me.

Este es uno de los libros mas tiernos que he leido. Me hubiera gustado un final mas cerrado o un epilogo, pero si me gusto demasiado.

You'd think the amount of issues dealt with in this book would make it tedious or over the top but no - it's a page turner (or whatever the audio equivalent is)!
