I really wanted to like this book, but I just ended up with too many questions about the world and setting. I 'm always super interested in setting, especially in a dystopian novel like this, and the book just wasn't specific enough to answer all my questions. That said, Nick and Benji were great characters and well-written. The side characters were extremely minor and unfortunately that made the story a little less engaging. Overall, it was a wonderful concept that could have been executed a little bit better if the book was a little longer.
