I could NOT believe all the negative reviews this book had here on GoodReads. It was almost like a hate club made up of book snobs. Harsh review after harsh review. What literary genius is everyone looking for from a standard YA novel, wrote for entertainment, not educational purposes? 
 Anyway, I had heard this was an interesting book with a different twist from the normal YA stuff so I decided to read it. I like it. It's different and it's interesting and if you like YA paranormal type books you will probably enjoy this one.
