The best PNR I've ever read! Given how much I've despised every PNR I've ever read, maybe that's not saying much. But this was closer to science fiction than PNR, in my estimate. I mean yes, there are "skinwalkers", but they're presented as another species, and there is genetic engineering and medical research going on. Ergo: not paranormal at all, really. Or not quite. 
 The heroine was pleasant, reasonably intelligent, had a stick up her ass, and was generally practical and unimaginative. I liked the way she interacted with her parents. I pictured her looking like America Ferrera. There was a love triangle, kinda, but it was a pretty mild one. Most questions remain unanswered at the end of the book. The ending wasn't exactly a cliff-hanger, but it didn't really wrap anything up either. 
 St. Cloud Corporation has the potential to be totally vile, which is what I'm hoping for. Some kind of Umbrella Corp./Resident Evil thing going on. 
 I might read the sequel, if I don't forget all about it. I won't say a super strong impression was made, here. It took me about 100 pages to get into it. 
 The writing is solid and steady, like a faithful horsey. You sit on it, and it moseys along faithfully from point A to point B, never deviating, never getting too crazy, never displaying any particular flair or imagination. Reliable. Runs on oats. Giddyap, Prosey! 
 All right, clearly my cold meds are getting the better of me here. G'night, buckaroos!
