Took a while to get to what I didn't know already, of course, but once it hit new ground it got great.

A retelling of the previous book in the series from a YA point of view. I won't be reading the rest...

Such a disappointment. This book didn't need to exist, since it's honestly just a rehash of the previous novel, with some parts actually being summaries of the events that took place. The newly added perspective and scenes didn't add anything of value, and Zoe's voice was at best a copy of John Perry's and at worst just a massively cliché teenager. I'm sad I didn't enjoy this at all.
