Stars:*
Review:This is going to be a fairly short review...because the book didn't grab me enough to write an in-depth analysis.

On the positive side: the plot is somewhat intriguing. Wanting to know the outcome is the only reason I kept reading.

On the negative: the writing is not good. The language isn't well put together. The dialogue is choppy. The story is too jumpy. The in-between details are not compelling.

All-in-all, if you're a fan of science-ish fiction mixed with an odd twist of romance and a conspiracy-based story, try it for yourself. Otherwise, skip.
