This book's story could be interesting, but it's very confusing to read. It's not written in chronological order, which can work, but on top of that it switches view points a few times (which I only noticed because at one point the view point changed genders) and inserts articles or book excerpts. This wouldn't be a problem if there was some way of telling that the book was doing this, either by putting titles on the chapters that relate to POV change or changing the formatting (i.e. font) when it's not from the main character's POV.
