I mean, I think it's pretty cool.
I was lucky enough to receive a manuscript of this book and all I can say is that it while this book was slow (for me) to start, once it took off I couldn't put it down. I was held captive by the world that Brittany Morris created..both the real world and the virtual world in this book.
I don't want to spoil anything (since it doesn't come out for a while) but I will say this book will not disappoint!
Thanks to Simon & Schuster for the manuscript!!
