3.0

Huh. That was a weird one. From the cover - which is different than the one on goodreads - which I hated mostly cause it kind of made the book seem like a ya romance. To the odd disjointed plot. This book had more ideas than it needed and it really didn't make all that good use of them. Probably any one of them would have made a decent book. The Gifted running the world. The corporation acting as a country. The virtual space as prison. The bar for people broken by virtual isolation. Even just Snow and Jackal's life at Ko. It didn't need all of this. It didn't make it feel richer, it just made it more crowded. And kind of felt that there was no obvious point to the world. But barring the absence of a sensical plot with an arc, the book was good anyway. 3.5 of 5.
