This book had more potential than it had anything else. Cool ideas, okay execution. 

Spoiler for end-is of book
I hate hate hate it when the main character 19 year old girl falls in love with her 200 year old 'master'. Talk about a power imbalance. c'mon, there are humans right there if you want a love interest
