I started reading this book without knowing anything about it and I rarely read sci-fi genre books but I definitely enjoyed this book.
I like how the way the author switch between different characters' perspective to tell the story, it allows me to understand more about the plot and know more about different characters. Although I admit it take me a while to get used to it.
This book is quite graphic but that doesn't really bothers me because I love horror books and I've read quite a lot of gory stuff s(I hope this doesn't sound creepy:p). What really bothers me is the fact that all the terrible things in the book were done by kids 14 and below. I know it's just a story, but I just can't help thinking "how can people this young do all these terrible things?!" while reading, and that gave me mixed feelings and kind of affect my reading progress; like I wanted to uncover all the mysteries but I also didn't want to know what kind of things these kids are going to do next
Nevertheless this book keeps me on the edge of my seat right up to the end. I never know what's going to happen next(except about the "blinked out"part on Sam and Caine), and who to trust.
Reread: 3.5 stars.
There’s too much going on some times, that it got messy and confusing
