I was fairly disappointed in this book. It was decent enough that I kept with it to see how it would play out, but it never seemed to get off the ground for me. I felt like the characters never really pulled me in enough and it always felt like something was missing. One of my biggest issues with the book was that so many controversial topics were brought in that it felt a bit overwhelming. A couple topics might have added to the overall plot, but I felt like too many just weighted down what could have been a great story line. I also felt like the book skipped around a lot, which just made it feel as if there were a lot of holes in the story. Additionally, many of those holes were never explained by the end of the book. I wouldn't recommend this one unless you just need something to read and have run out of other ideas.
