I was really drawn to this book when I heard it was almost like Gossip Girl set in the future. I wasn't a huge fan of the Gossip Girl books but I enjoyed the tv show so I was really looking forward to reading this book.

Overall, I would say it was alright, but nothing overly special. The characters were written well and McGee is clearly a very talented author. I really enjoyed Rylin's storyline as well as Watt's. I also found the start of the novel to be intriguing - beginning with what was to happen at the end of the book provides a lot of suspicion and mystery that certainly kept me drawn to the book.

That being said, I found some faults that led me to give this book a 3 star rating. First, Avery and Atlas' storyline was just too much for me. Second, I found myself to be confused sometimes with the technology of the future - it could do with some more explanation. Third, I really just found myself getting a bit tired of drugs and parties.

Despite this, I will be checking out the sequel as the ending was something that really captured me!
