After all the hype, I was really disappointed in this book. I can't tell you why exactly, just that I was. I plodded along, just waiting to finish reading it. The main character is slightly annoying and not very likeable. And worst of all - it felt like insta-love. 
 Some of the dialogue I enjoyed, Lauren Oliver is actually a really good author. This book was just not for me. 
 It's been over a month and about ten books later for me, but I don't think I will be reaching for the sequel any time soon.
