Customer Reviews

you can NOT put this down..

I wasnt sure what to think of this book when I got it because its in the future, which made me think ehh.. but I ended up getting sucked in and read it with in a couple of sittings. You really start to get invested in the characters and the story lines that go along with them. So many emotions flooded me when I read this book. I bought the sequel and it was just as good, I am about to purchase the third and final book to this series. Katharine Mcgee had me HOOKED!

Riveting

I finished this book in two days. It was absolutely beautiful. McGee did an incredible job of reinventing New York City while keeping the very current class separation. The characters were deep and diverse. I can't wait for the next one in the series.
