5.0

Man, I love a truly fast-paced captivating book. Katharine McGee is the queen of the multi-POV. Rich, unsupervised teens set in a futuristic NYC, but somehow she makes these disasters of characters deeply empathetic.

Also, I cannot believe this is her debut novel! Clearly working as an editor first taught her how to write a tightly paced page-turner with characters that each feel unique and fully-realized.
