So this author (Scott Westerfeld) is my favorite author. I expected this book to be totally awsome and well, it wasn't. The whole general idea was good, but there was too much sexual stuff, to be frank. There wasn't any really bad stuff but i dunno i don't really need to into it. Basically i was disappointed and if u wanna read a book by Mr. Westerfeld, don't read this one. Read Uglies, or So Yesterday.
