Loved it a lot more than I was expecting to. Everything was so raw, kind of animalistic, and was very different to the kind of books and writing style I've read before. Also, the concept was so cool, and nothing I'd ever thought of before. Had a bit of a slow buildup but WOW the ending was not slow at all.
