Wow folks, strap yourselves in cus this one is a bumpy ride. This was one of the most layered young adult sci-fi's I've read in a long time. The whole structure was done well and ultimately, I could see something like this happening. Not matter how disturbing a lot of the subject matter is. However, my only qualm with this book is that there was so much crammed into it! My head got so dizzy for all the whiplash. Don't get me wrong, I love a good plot twist but, 5 in a row? Give me a break; my neck can only do so much! The characters feel so real and I am intrigued to see how it is going to move on. Pick up this up if you want high stakes sci-fi plot twists and more than its fair share of drama. Trust me, you are going to need it.
