DNF 50%

I hate DNF-ing this book so much because Ilsa J Bick wrote one of my favourite trilogies of all time which is the Monsters trilogy.

I think the writing in this book is really good and there's nothing wrong with it. It's the plot of the story in this one that I just couldn't handle. It's definitely a lot more in the sci-fi horror genre than plain sci-fi, and there were some really terrifying moments in this with a bit of added gore.

The concept of this book is just so confusing and even after reading halfway through the book, I wouldn't know how to start explaining what is going on. It seems to be a little bit of a mix between The Matrix and Inkheart but even that is far too simplified. Things were only starting to be explained where I left off but it wasn't enough for me to keep going. I was really disconnected with the story and everything going on was way too much of a mind f**k for me, particularly in the current climate.

There are some people who like particular types of horror who would really love this. This is definitely the type of book where you get it or you just don't. Unfortunately, I was the latter.
