This was alright.  I hesitated to read it because recently I've been shying away from reading about teenage characters, and the main character of this book is basically why.  It was angsty and left so many unanswered questions. The beginning was pretty descriptive and fleshed out; then the conflict happened which left you as confused as the main character; then the climax just left even more questions because the story abruptly ends. I don't mind cliffhanger endings, but there was just more left unresolved than resolved, which made this unsatisfying.
