I enjoyed the storyline of this book, and I found it very easy to root for these characters. I enjoyed the world that Josephson built, and there were places where I couldn't wait to see what would happen next. However, there were also places where I found the pacing to be weird, or I wasn't completely convinced that the characters were acting in a realistic way for themselves. I enjoyed what I got, but I wanted more. This book also definitely sets up a series, meaning the ending was unsatisfying for me at this moment. All in all, I liked my time in this story but I'm not sure it will stick with me.
