So much happened in this book that it felt like three in one. This review contains many spoilers:

The Breakers reminded me a lot of the children from The Institute. Let me tell you, I screamed when Sheemie popped up. 

Eddie, Jake, and Oy's deaths were all sad. But they happened very fast that I almost didn't have time to grieve them. Once they were there, and then they weren't. 

The ending wasn't what I suspected. I had assumed it was going to be this ground breaking, monumental thing, instead we're just back in the beginning for an unending cycle. Which make sense, since Ka is a wheel. I think I was just a little disappointed
