This book.... Hmm. First let me say, I like the cover. I like the whole symbolism of THE EGG. Good stuff, good stuff. But here is where the whole "don't judge a book by its cover" comes in to play... 
 It wasn't that this was a bad book, I just thought I would like it more than I did. I thought I would be riveted, but nope. I wanted to like it, so I kinda stuck with it, but I jumped around a lot.... I think I read the middle and then I read the end and then I read the beginning again. Which wasn't really such a good plan. Maybe if I had read the beginning first, I would have liked it more.... 
 I think the thing was, I didn't connect with any of the characters. 
 Melody, who was originally intended to be the surogette, didn't really seem to have any emotions. How can I describe it.... It was like she was totally into conforming, she wanted to be the leader of the Pro-Am Allience, and I had no idea she wasn't feeling it. But apparently, she WASN'T feeling it, because all of a sudden, at the end, after Harmony had already bumped with Jondoe, she's all "I don't want to be a surogette". And I was like... Well, you could have fooled me. And then she cofesses her love for Zen (or something along those lines), but I felt like she had never really felt anything for him. THere wasn't enough background on their relationship, and they didn't soend enough time together throughout the book. 
 Harmony was like REALLY Christian. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just that I can't relate, as someone who isn't particularly religeous. And I know that she was really confused about what she believed, but I was finding it hard to figure out why she was doing anything that she was doing. Like why she married Ram. Stuff like that. 
 Jondoe. First off, his name. It works, because John Doe is the name they give to unidentified bodies, right? And I really couldn't identify anything about him. He shows up at Melody's place and confesses his love for Harmony and I was like WOAH DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING. I felt like I didn't knwo his character at all at any point in the story. 
 Zen. My favorite character. There was entirely too little of him in the story, and that's all I'm saying. 
 So, I think this is a great idea for a story, but I wish that the characters had been better, because then it would have actually been a great story. Sad :'(
