A sci fi mystery / thriller. I enjoyed it and instantly liked the writing. There were times when I started to lose interest but overall it was a decent story. The mystery wasn't that mysterious in the end but it was still an interesting ride.

This one hooked me in and reeled me along till the end. Enjoyed the world and characters and twists and turns. Great for a summer read.

This is a weird one. I originally rated it 4 stars but have now changed it to 3.5 on reflection.
Its a truman show / Inception / a bit of blake crouch. You never really know what is going on and everything is like a dream.
