 Yes. I admit it. I love reality shows in book form. They manage to be so incredibly boring and stupid - and yet so shocking - on TV, but when they are fictionalized they exert a strange allure over me. Because transferring something defined as non-fiction (even though it mostly is fiction) to self-declared fiction exposes the viewer of one as a palpable hidden player in the game. It forces awareness of one's sadistic voyeurism. That is what makes stories such as The Hunger Games so incredibly great. True Calling, though, does not play this very well, and it is quite obvious that what it does play, it owes to Suzanne Collins's best-selling trilogy. It also clearly owes a lot to the YA book formula. Sadly, that makes the novel extremely predictable - to me anyway. Especially the last scene, I kept flipping the pages simply waiting for Cal's inevitable and fatal lingering behind. 
 On the other hand, I was drawn to this story in a way I hadn't been in years by any YA book. It might be predictable, but it's good predictable. Davis has a decent prose and I enjoyed getting to know the characters. (All except Eve. I mean, how much boring and silly could she get? She is the mother of goody two shoes best friend cliches in YA.) But there is a reason most reviewers cannot pick between Team Cal and Team Zane. They're both flawed and they're both crazy about Ariana. Cal is so ridiculously likeable, he even has the right DNA for a bad boy. But Zane has (view spoiler)[loved Ari even after she forgot he existed (hide spoiler)]. Ariana herself is not too bad; usually protagonists annoy me because they are either undecided or too nice or too sexy. They always get on my nerves, because they can't just be people. Ari manages to be a person. And that alone made me like her. 
 Finally, I have my predictions for the remaining books in the trilogy, as I intend to read them all (because I seriously had fun): 
 (view spoiler)[*	Cal will seem to be on his father's side next time Ariana sees him. He might even state that he was following his father's orders the whole time. Even if this is true, it will be proved that he fell in love with her during that process and told daddy he would do it no more. All very romantic. 
 *	Ari will get to know Zane again, and they will get closer. They may even kiss, but her feelings for him will not return. Zane was, after all, her first love, and clearly their relationship cannot move forward from the unbalanced state the memory situation (even if that is fixed) left them on. 
 *	Ari's dad is not dead. I wouldn't be surprised if the second book ended with his unexplained reappearance. He's either hidden in earth or, I think, in yet another secret and somehow nearby planet, ready to be colonized by everyone. 
 *	Zane will end up with Isla. 
 *	Ari will end up with Cal. 
 *	Lily will die. She's too much of a Mary Sue not to. The ideal sacrificial victim. 
 *	Ben will restart his foundation with Cal in the other planet, or in case there isn't one, in a post-revolution Novo. (hide spoiler)] 
 Let's see how much I score.
