I now want to read it even more. I love sci-fi and dystopian. They are my two favorite genres to read right now. I especially love that there is a little bit of romance in this book as well as action! That is really intriguing.

I'll admit to being a little confused at first, but I hung with it and the story played itself out so well - and before long I was SUCKED IN and couldn't get enough. By the time the story ended I was SO SAD was over. I need to read the next book SOON and like always, I'll want to re-read this one before the next installment comes out. This is one of the better-written, most imaginative and creative books that has come out in the past couple of years, in my opinion. Plus the cover is GORGEOUS.Asheley T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03908795522290889438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4526519861558347251.post-49514968258787960862012-04-30T10:17:07.028-04:002012-04-30T10:17:07.028-04:00Yay!
