although the concept and plot of this book is what hooked me into getting it, i must say i only finished it because i had high hopes.

I felt cheated at the end of the book. Like the author did not fully develop the characters to the point of the readers satisfaction. I felt like the story was told in the first 5 chapters then that was it. The rest was just the explanation. No sub-plot or climax to the story.

If you have read the back cover of the book, you could stop reading there and still know pretty much everything that happens.

I wasnt very pleased with this book. I only give this a 2.5 out of 5 stars.

And there is no excuse for the book being like this. . .. some people tried to tell me its because its a young adult book, and thats just crap! some of the best books i have read are YA. So the reason why i gave it only 2.5 stars was because it was a poorly written book
