Lindsay- I just started this. I'm liking it a lot! It's a little confusing since there's so much thrown at you at once, but I like the mystery of it all. The whole Elder thing was confusing and I had to reread it to understand what happened.

Lindsay I found the As They Slip Away (ATU 0.5). It's free, but you have to read it on the computer. Well, you can dowload it to your kindle/nook, but the directions are mad confusing lol.

I have a few guesses who the killer is. First of all i think it's a girl bc they keep making a big deal that its a boy. So it could be Harley's old gf that Amy is living in her old room. Or it could be Steela. If it is a boy then I think it's the Elder that "died" since his finger prints were on the box. Or it could be Luthe bc he's weird but that seems random.

I still can't see any connection between her and #100 but maybe he had conscious thoughts while frozen too or maybe it has something to do with the financial exchange thingy and what she heard as she was being frozen. I want to solve this mystery!!! Did u figure it out before it was revealed?


message 17: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Church (lindsaychurch) Oh god I hate Luthe so much!!! But when i was reading for some reason i didnt suspect him- he seemed violent and capable of it but not smart enough? LOL. Such a great mystery tho!! I didn't really figure it out- they kept shoving eldest into the suspect so I thought it wasn't him but then I was like maybe that's the point?! We don't suspect him because they do and then it really was. So I flipped around alot. LOL abs ya like you I was like maybe the one who "died"? And I never suspected a girl so that's cool that you went there! By the time who did it gets revealed the mystery is SO much bigger though OMG. I can't wait for your "wtf!!!"

Ahhhh i can't wait! I'm glad the mystery gets bigger. I keep waiting for it to but it hasn't yet. I love watching shows like NCIS, law and order, and psych so I'm loving this book bc it's sci fi and romance but also a murder mystery.

I also thought it was really interesting how Eldest taught Elder that Hitler was a great smart leader. It just makes you realize that history is warped by who's teaching it and how. And that's kind of scary really.


message 19: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Church (lindsaychurch) OMG I know!!! At first I thought Eldest was saying that because HEs evil but I guess he was probably taught it too like a very intense game of telephone.

Ooo maybe someone was unfrozen and that's who's doing it lol

So when she was frozen but concious and thought she was being taken out but then thought it was just a dream...I think that was elder and Orion. Bc Orion said "you gave me the idea" to elder and then he freaked out so I think he liked Amy before she unfroze

Wow I wasn't expecting elder to be the one to actually do it but It makes sense bc his character was kind of naive in the beginning. I'm liking Amy's character more. I'm glad she didn't just shrug off elder's confession right away. And poor Harley. I liked his character. I wonder what that whole financial exchange thing was about that she heard as she was being frozen. I guess that'll be in book 2. Are they all mysteries?


message 23: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Church (lindsaychurch) Ya all mysteries!!!!
