The Loop by Jeremy Robert Johnson
2.0
Sadly, this was not a story for me. I could not get myself immersed in this world no matter how hard I tried. And believe me, I tried. I wanted to love this story and get freaked out by it. But, it didn't seem to happen for me. Especially, with the pace of the story and how little of a connection I felt to the characters that were introduced.
The writing style didn't get me to love this either, as the more I read, the more I wanted to put this novel down, which is never a good thing. Sometimes, a slow burn is well appreciated, but here there was neither that, nor a desire to find out what was really going on with the teens in this world. For all of that, I'm sorry that it just couldn't have gone another way for me. I wished it wasn't so.
