Blood Ties by Sophie McKenzie

meh, that's the impact that this book had on me. Eh, it was alright, didn't love it, didn't hate it.
The plotline was interesting and easy to follow, it just wasn't gripping enough, not to mention how much the main characters annoyed me.
Theo was just angsty and angry all the time, and when I say that, I really mean all the time. Rachel on the other hand, I was torn about whether to hug or slap her, her insecurities and the way she was so shy got on my nerves, maybe it was because I felt that her flaws were being pushed to the front and into the readers face as if to say "LOOK AT ME I HAVE FLAWS, I'M NOT PERFECT LIKE ALL THE YA FICTION FEMALE CHARACTERS SEEM TO BE."
That's just my honest opinion though, however I did like the Lewis/Mel storyline and I liked their arc and whatever but I don't think I'm going to read the next book, I'm not too fussed on what happens in the embryo/cloning world.
I may not have liked it but this story made me think so hats off to that.
