As someone else said in an earlier review here, could be read and enjoyed by a regular fiction reader or a young person.
This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.This book was just OK. Even on and off good. The problem I had is that I could not find any redeeming qualities in any of the 4 main characters.

This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.This book was just not for me. I was drawn to the book by the premise, but felt that a good story was just out of reach for some reason. I felt no connection to the main characters. Every time I thought something was developing that would draw me into the story, it was either cut short or went in a completely other direction.

The ending, deep-down I knew it was always coming, but it still made for a little shock none-the-less.
