What I Thought of It - Five Observations/Reflections...
*This was a very different type of story and I'm not sure I "got" it.
*I really tried to engage with the characters and what was happening with them, but I found it difficult to do so.
*There were moments/chapters that I found myself saying, "Ok, now I'm enjoying this, or now I get it", but then the plot would continue in a different direction and lose me.
*The writing was beautiful, complex, and unique, but sometimes I found it going over my head.
*Toward the end of the story I found myself scanning so that I could finish the book.
Who Should Read It...
*Many readers have given this novel either 4 or 5 stars. It wasn't for me, but that doesn't mean it won't grab other readers and bring them into a futuristic world of survival, love, and betrayal. Happy Reading!
