So I made the most tragic mistake with this book, I started to read the sequel before realising it was a sequel. That said I still found the first three quarters of this book incredibly intriguing even though I essentially knew where the story was going. The overall idea of the book was fantastic and I felt that knowledge of what was going in was held back in the right way. However, the last 50 pages or so just weren't as enjoyable for me and I found myself not realty wanting to read it, which is incredibly rare for me. As well as this, the ending felt incredibly rushed and most of the time I had no idea what was going on. One minute they're showing her the origin Emma and then without much explanation they're blowing up the cloning room, then she's somehow back at the mountain house. I got the feeling that the author just wanted to get it over with which disappointed me as I thoroughly enjoyed the rat of the book.
