I.. don’t know how to feel. I don’t even wanna rate this book.

First off, the beginning was incredibly slow. I almost DNF’d this book because of how slow it was. Don’t get me wrong, it was not boring. It was just.. not exciting. 

I was pleasantly surprised after the book started going. The story line is really good. A bounty hunter competing against other bounty hunters in a chase to find who’s sabotaging the games? Great.
Except I could feel the slow burn between Hideo and Emika (it was absolutely agonizing) I just wish there was more romance throughout it instead of towards the end. However, the romance was satisfying when it was included. Emila and Hideo bonding whne they could sense each others emotions and their grief was a great addition.


So, me being me, I skipped ahead for the romance. I of course spoiled it for myself and found out who Zero was. I was shocked to say the least.

Then here comes the end. The awful, awful, end.
First off, the ending was incredibly cliche. I don’t know if it was because I spoiled, but that ending was incredibly disappointing. You made this elaborate plan just to find out you have been helping the bad guy and prohibiting the good guy. I don’t even see how the author could come up with a sequel for this book. What is there to write about? Emika now joins the bad guy and explains to everyone how their elaborate plan was for nothing?


And HIDEO!! HOW COULD YOY BETRAY ME LIKE THIS !! i loved him and he ripped my heart in two with the new NeuroLink.
