The Toll by Neal Shusterman

adventurous challenging mysterious

4.0

I was really into it for most of the book. The pacing was slow but then picked up in the middle and I had no idea where things were going.

But the pacing at the end was INSANE!! Everything happened so quickly - it felt very rushed. No one scene with any character group lasted more than a page r so, so it was hard for the emotional resonance to permeate. 

That being said, I did love the diversity of the interstitials and the real life reflections that this book contained. It was definitely quite thought provoking!
