Not my favorite James Patterson. With this co-author (JD Barker) it's very different from previous books. Weird, a little hard to follow, science fiction.

This book was so good! If you are a fan of thrillers and horrors I would highly recommend it. The chapters are short and full of suspense and mystery. I could hardly put it down. I loved the sci-fi/horror element to it. I was definitely not expecting a plot twist at the end but it was so satisfying.

This was an interesting read. At first I felt it was out of control but maybe that was the purpose of the book. It had me reading wanting to know what happened till the very end

Couldn’t finish this book, just couldn’t get into it, it was a bit slow and boring.
