What Members Thought
As soon as this book started it was ON. It continued to be ON through the entire book. Never once settling down too long. Always go go go. And I loved it!
This wasn't terrible, it's just that by the end, I didn't really care anymore. That's not really how books should go. There were some interesting things here, but for the most part, it seemed pretty forgettable.

This book was really amazing and deserves more than five stars. It is a crazy dystopian/alien invasion/sci-fi novel that had me hooked from page one.

Why, why must all dystopias come with love triangles?!?! It's not coming until book two, and it might be a quadrangle, but it's there casting its cliched gloom over a perfectly good book. Boooo!

I love Evan Walker. He's my book crush of the moment.

I was pleasantly surprised by this novel which I thought was really good. Not amazing but really, really good. I understand a lot of the negative reviews I've ready but I found this one to be a joy to read. It's certainly got flaws but it's a fun read that I really enjoyed reading!
