I wasn't sure how to feel about the book when I was first getting into it, but the more I read it, the more I came to like it. For me, it's a big plus that it's written in 3rd person as well since nowadays it feels like I run into too many 1st person books. Anyhow, I think the fast paced story really suits the plot and I came to enjoy a lot of the characters introduced throughout the book, and that made it all the harder when some didn't make it to the end. The twist wasn't too surprising, and it really felt like the ending was written as if it were a movie, but it wasn't awful. Might have to check the sequel out!
