Quite and enjoyable book with a great story and good characters. Loved the state the world was in, the setting for most of the book, the characters and so on. Would recommend for any YA fans looking for a fun adventure that's not wrapped up in romance. Only wouldn't recommend to those weirdos who don't like books if they aren't "real". Which ugh, but that's another matter. Great book!

Another library pick I stumbled on. This one caught my eye at the library, and though I had never heard of it, the cover and the title grabbed my attention. I later found out it's sci-fi, something I'm not often the biggest fan of, but this one pulled it off! When a book leave me reaching for the next in a series right away, I know it was a good pick!
The story was interesting and well written, the characters fun and entertaining. I loved Luke most of all, but also enjoyed uncle Jack, Elanor and Finn. As soon as things started happening, it was a snowball affect to the end, and as the first book, it seems things are just getting started! I'm excited to see what happens next, and can't wait to follow them on their next journey. (Sadly my library doesn't have the next two books, so it will be a little while before I can find out)
A few things I didn't like was that this book did have some cussing, which wasn't bad, and only happened a few times. I also used Lord and God as curses, and mentioned suicide casually a few times, but overall those are all minor things, and for the most part I really enjoyed reading this!

really? really? the ending here was as much a horrible let down as Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull, the movie that should never have been made. I mean come on.
the beginning was good, which is why this got two stars instead of just one. Eleanor is a good hero- spunky, interesting, and just a bit flawed. the action is good,if a bit unbelievable. but then the last third of the book. sigh.

Exactly the kind of book I like: slightly futuristic disastery dystopia where everything is cold, kick-butt female lead, and sketchy science.
