3.0

I found this book rather confusing at times and then it all wrapped up rather quickly. I think I might need to read it again to fully appreciate it. I can't say I liked any of the characters but I'm not sure you're supposed to? This wouldn't be my usual go to kind of book so it was good to branch out but I'm not sure I'd be recommending it to many people.
