I have pretty mixed feelings about this book; it could have been a lot better, but it could have been a lot worse.  The worldbuilding details were confusing but kind of interesting. The plot was strangely paced, but interesting yet again. The characters aren't ones I would die for, but interesting and pretty realistic (I guess including the urges to kiss each other all the time?). I enjoyed the ending the most because it seemed to piece together everything I overlooked at the beginning, although the resolution felt slightly anticlimactic and rushed. At any rate, the cover is gorgeous. :)
