This was Gossip Girl on crazy pills on Halloween. I swear.
I enjoyed this. I thought Lindsay was a great character. She was well-rounded, I thought. All the right amounts of sweet, naive, headstrong, determined and at times, she was a totally boy-crazy little teenage girl

I mean, come on, she went gaga over a cute boy while her best friend was writhing on the ground in pain from a sprained ankle. THAT WAS GOLD OKAY?

Proper review to come.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review

I had a few issues with the pacing and found a few bits here and there a tad confusing. I wasn't particularly blown away by the ending either - but overall, I enjoyed this book. It's a good read. I found the concept behind it fresh and interesting. The characters were great, and I Eveland's writing style was captivating. It had me picking up this book until I finished it.

It wasn't without its problems, but I would definitely recommend it to people and will be picking up the sequel when it comes out.

4.5 stars.
Review to come.

Those last few sentences killed me a little bit.

Expect a lengthy, rant-y, series review in the near future.

I was actually yelling towards the end. First out of anger and disbelief, but then out of joy BECAUSE I WAS FREAKING RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING.

I'll review this and Possessions once I'm done with the series.

There were a couple of things wrong with this book - (You look exactly like your older brother, except with grey eyes instead of blue, and you didn't think that you could be twins? What's up with that, Gray?) - but I found it quite enjoyable. Gray was a little hard for me to like at first, because he's stubborn and a little selfish, but after a couple of chapters I started to warm up to him. I don't particularly love him yet, but it's a start.
Didn't adore the book, but am interested enough to read the next one - even if I did call every plot twist Bowman tried to throw at me.
