erm.... I got pretty annoyed with the cliche and the tropes of YA or teen novels LOL. I didn't really like the book.

I probably would have liked the book better if I were in my teens though. The suspense was fun. I kind of can't believe the ending, I was totally off my game in terms of guessing the ending, so kudos to that. And for the record I rather enjoyed Spoon LOL. He was random, but funny, though, very very cliched too.

I probably should have read Book 1 first as well. This was supposed to be for the challenge prompt #20, a book whose title begins with the last letter of your previous read, but this has nicely fallen into prompt #24 A book you can read in one sitting.
