Marie, my queen... you've done it again.

(me, in the background: *screaming into a pillow*)

This is a fantastic debut novel for Marie's next series! I love video game realities as a default, but this is such an awesome world of tech especially. I would actually love to see this on the big screen just for the grand, lush visuals we could be provided!

The three large plot twists were a little predictable for me, but I suspect that is more so because I've read enough at this point to see where things are going. However, the how and why these twists occur are/were surprises, so I'm pleased that even if I saw it coming, I was still surprised and betrayed! It's also setting up to be a very, very complex world when the second novel releases, so I am eagerly looking forward to how this all plays out.

I'm so happy Marie is back with a new series, and I CANNOT wait for book two. I'll definitely be getting this book with my annual B&N gift card(s) at Christmas. And maybe pre-ordering book 2?
