2.0

I thought this book had trouble finding its footing. The things that happen to Jude feel disconnected and the, though fun and imaginative, the finally isn’t really a climax of the events of the story so much as it is just another thing that happens. Very imaginative with great very real feeling characters definitely a hit with a younger crowd  but ultimately not for me
