I like the authors, the story was very different from a regular reading experience. In a cool way. Super quick read and a fun little sci fi adventure.

This book was EVERYTHING. It had amazing characters, intriguing plot, mind-blowing plot twists, gorgeous writing... Gosh, it's a sure cocktail for success. I'm thinking of writing a longer review afterwards after I jot down some ideas so maybe I'll just do that. Maybe. I don't promise anything. I'm lazy.

But holy shit, this book was fantastic! Now I need someone to give me the sequel because damn, it's going to be amazing, I can feel it in my bones!


2.5 stars. I just don't think I'm interested in scifi enough to understands this. I do understand why it is so popular though, just not my kind of thing.

This book is crazy good! This is definitely the best book I have ever read. Although untraditional, the way this book fits together is seamless and very interesting! Great read with suspense and "WHAT THE HECK! THAT DID NOT JUST HAPPEN"s on every page. Pick this book up! You will not be disappointed!

NOW RUN!

Amazing. Absolutely amazing.
