I was really hoping for a fun little listen, but instead I got an annoying, unlikable main character, and a story that went no where. I felt uncomfortable with the relationship between the characters: an underage girl with an adult male? Were we supposed to be ok with it because it was two broken people being broken together? I don't know. I just never felt ok with it. Maybe if they were closer in age? Maybe if she wasn't underage? And the fact she believed so whole werewolf thing made her seem even younger too.
I do think the plot was interesting, but it could've been so much more. Maybe if she found more connections between herself and Lizzie, but instead the focus was on the weird relationship between her and an overage man. I wanted so much more from this book, and instead I just got a lot of disappointment and an annoying main character that I never felt sorry for once. Everything bad that happened to her, I was happy it did. She deserved some hard times, and she never got it, not that I thought she deserved.
But HEY! I finished it, and that is all that matters!

Wow. Talk about boring. A whole book about nothing, and that's what I got. Nothing. I really wanted a book about twins really working hard to find a way to rebuild their relationship, but I felt like I didn't get that at all. I thought they were going to take the tie to rediscover themselves, but I bare got that.
I feel like I read a book about a bunch of first world problems being made into mountains. I didn't care about the twins at all, and I don't understand why the cities were mentioned at all.
I really had to push myself to finish this book, and I was listening to it. Listening to it was a struggle and a chore, but I knew I had to finish. I kept hoping something exciting would happen, but nothing did. But again, it was a book about nothing, so that is what I got.
Such a bore and a disappointment. I wanted to listen to it because it was nominated on here for a book of the year in 2017. I don't even know how it got there, but it is clear on why it didn't win.

WOW! Just wow!
Another book I started listening to as I waited for my books to get off hold, and I am just so happy with it.
When I started the book, I was a little bored and confused on where this story will lead me, but I am so happy I took this journey. While I will say, I am not completely amazed with it, and I happy with it, and that is because of the ending. There are some boring parts, some parts that could've been better, but that ending made it worth it. The ending blew my mind and made me obsessed!
I feel like my least favorite part of the story is Emika and Hideo's relationship. I really don't see where it came from. I knew it was coming because it was the cliche thing to do, but I wish more was written; I wish there was more detail on where his feelings came from. Her feelings, I understood. But his? I wish I knew why he felt so strongly towards her.
However, I found myself forgiving this because I was just so blow away by the the ending. Now I have started the 2nd book and I can't read it fast enough.
I originally thought the idea of this book, a Ready Player One and Hunger Games hybrid, was, well, unoriginal. But now I'm obsessed! Clearly! I can't wait to find out more and watch the plot unravel even more!

This book kept me guessing through the whole thing. I thought I knew where it was going, and then it went the exact opposite, and I loved every moment. I loved every twist and turn this book took me on, and I was very nervous about reading it. I didn't know how I would feel, and I ended up loving it.
If I could compare this book to another, I would say Rebecca. I just got the same vibe, which is a very good thing.
I love the story telling as well. Whatever Hal was feeling, I found myself feeling the same thing. It was jut so well written, and it was so easy to find myself lost in this story, part of it.
I went into this book with no idea how I would like it... or not, and ended up loving it! I am so happy I decided to give it a try!
