Did you like treasure plant/island, Atlantis: the lost Empire and the dystopian books from the early 2000 you will enjoy this book.

I started this book in the morning and about 6 hours later I finished it and I loved every second of it. Jin is a very gripping and intriguing character to follow her journey across a sunken America to find the treasure that may or may not save her and her sister.

I never personally have read treasure planet. I have seen treasure planet muppet movie and treasure planet and I felt it was pretty close to the original (but did I buy the original because I now want to read that yes).
What was refreshing about the book is that it was a lot off hindu influence because normally in these kind off books the. main characters are "white" annoying female and Jin was nothing like that. Probably the reason I finished in six hours.
What this didn't make it a five star read is Taim. I didn't like Taim and I found the story between him and Jin unnecessary which also made the end a bit off a bummer

Good book will look forward to reading the next book this author may write
