Taylor Hamdorf I feel the same way after I read a really good series. I thought this book was pretty good, it's not my favorite, but it's a great book to read if you're having trouble finding one.


Shelley It's a nice stand-alone book among all the trilogies out there. I really enjoyed it! I recommend it!

It's actually not a stand-alone book. It's the first of a trilogy. Anyway, I loved it. I liked that it wasn't just another run-of-the-mill sci-fi book, maybe the concept isn't completely new, but I thought it sounded new. Yep, I say go for it! Happy reading!

Vee Gretzinger NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ALL THESE BOOKS SUCKED. the mystery was really obvi too, i predicted it from the start... plus i hated both the characters.

i felt the same way... sadly i bought the whole series so i was forced to read them (to get my money's worth) but they were so damn stupid! i had to put it into my "junk" shelf... serioulsy it sucked ass.


Melanie Lee I personally liked them. They were a different type of story line, not one you really hear about. And the first one ends good to the point where if you don't particularly like it, then you don't have to finish the series


Trinesha I thought this book was only ok. It took a while for the real action on the ship to start and I was bored reading it. I only finished the book because I don't like starting something and not finishing. I say if you think it sounds interesting give it a try, but don't have high expectations for it.


Natasha YES READ IT !


Kathy Yes, you should read it!


Sofia Petersen IT'S MY FAVORITE BOOK. Read it.


Rashika (is tired) Ha there are so many mixed opinions.
I liked the book so I think you should read it.
It's rather unique and I love the concept. Yes sometimes it can be slow.
Like the first book was slow and I had to force myself to read some bits but then I realized what she was doing I was surprised.
The second book gets a lot better and there is a lot of character development
and I haven't read the third yet but I've heard it's super awesome as well.


VG/Allie YES!!!! read these books they don't dissipoint!


Angelina The first two books are great, but be ready to be disappointed. It was just plain painful how obvious the plot was in the last book. I felt so cheated by the lack of answers to questions. It was probably the worst ending to a trilogy I have ever read.


Yassmeen Madwar I really enjoyed the first two books, I haven't finishd the last one yet. But it's a bit shocking that some of you guys thought it was a bad trilogy.

Anyway, I need to finish the 3rd book ! Maybe you're right (hope not ^^)


Francesca Caruso um yes. is this even a question?


Maddie Tiare I'm about to start reading it, and I'm hoping it'll be good (because the preview I read on the Barnes and Noble website was good) but the thing is that you're not always going to read books you like, and you have to be willing to take some risks to find books you love. I guess this probably doesn't help answer your question, but I think its important information to keep in mind.

Vee Gretzinger i'm warning you now. this book is really boring and super stale.

Beatrice Ya, it is a trilogy.

I really liked all of the books :) so I hope you read it even with all of the mixed reviews.


Leela Depends on your tastes I guess, but I enjoyed it!


Rachel YES it was awesome!!! Long, however worth it!!
