What an absolute SLOG this book was to get through, which is really disappointing, because Uglies was so much fun.
This book though... 75% of it was boring as heck. Just like Pretty life must be boring as heck. The last 25% of the book was a page turner, but the journey to get there was awful.
And then the book ended with ANOTHER cliffhanger. I said to myself - I don't want to read another one of these books if it's going to be like this. And then by the end, I wanted to know what happened next. However, I'll be taking a little break from the series before I do that.
