mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.0

This book was okay. Sort of a techno-thriller for the YA set. Most of the characters are pretty thin and the romance is ridiculous, but I respect what it was trying to do.
