This was a re-read for me, but I hadn’t read this book since I was about 14 or 15 which was nearly 10 years ago. And my opinion on the book definitely has changed because I do remember liking it a lot more back then in my naivete than I did now. 
My biggest issue with this book, and really the main issue I have, is that it’s definitely too long. There is a lot of repetition and a lot of inner monologue that just is not necessary. There’s also a time period within the story where every single day is described and I just didn’t feel like this was necessary.
The action and suspense that comes at the end does make up for this quite a lot however not enough that I can ignore that I was bored and skim read a good 150 pages of this book.
There are a few things in this book that I find slightly unrealistic especially considering the very hard-hitting topics that are discussed, and I definitely feel this is a book that target audience is late teens but again the length goes against this.
There is some good quotes in here and a lot of scenes that I did enjoy however unfortunately the middle did just drag and there was a few days where I just didn’t feel the motivation to read this book, and if I hadn’t of read it already and knew that the ending got a lot better I probably wouldn’t have finished this book.
