I kind of sort of read this hook...read through about the first 100 pages, and found myself getting bored and skimming whole pages at a time. I finally just skipped to the end and read the last 30 pages or so and called it a day. I'm not sure this is the fault of the book...it really wasn't the kind of fiction that captures me. I like some of the authors' work, but their "voice" didn't really come through in Indigo, perhaps because there were so many authors involved in it's production. YMMV.

I received an advance copy for review from net galley. I really wanted to love this book. It has several of my favorite authors. Sadly, I just couldn't get into it. It felt very disjointed.

For a book co-authored by 10 people it was surprisingly cohesive. I wish they would've shared what they used as a collaborative writing process. Despite the cohesion it fell flat for me. Cool characters, but our protagonist spent way too much time vague and confused. It was repetitive without really benefiting the plot. Also I really didn't care for that epilogue Shelby ending.

2 1/2 stars. This is an easy read. It's an OK story, but it's rather choppy and I never got invested in any of the characters. I think this story would have been more successful as a graphic novel. It has a lot of gratuitous violence - too much for me to have any interest in pursing the story line if there's more - and at times the level of suspension of disbelief required is far too high.

Indigo is a quirky collaboration by ten of the best authors out there. Action, adventure, and mystery will keep you enthralled as Investigative reporter Nora Hesper discovers herself and her past. There are some violent scenes and some emotionally painful scenes but the story is strong and keeps you wanting to know what happens next.

I liked it a lot, there was a lot of inconsistencies as people have said but nothing too distracting. A very good listen.

So many good authors in one place doesn't make for a perfect read. I liked the story, I liked the characters (there are so many of them), and I liked that I the book moved along. There are some slow spots, there are some places where I just had to stop and *blink* and make sure I read what I read. I think what is holding back this story is that there are so many parts moving at the same time! You really have to go in with an open mind, because it's not anything you've read before all in one place.
