My Thoughts
I really enjoyed this book because it reminded me so much of a futuristic Gossip Girl story. And I love Gossip Girl! I like how this story started with the end: a girl falling off the 1000th floor on the Tower. I like the mystery behind it and how we don't know who it is at the beginning.
I loved the 5 main characters that the story is told from:
Avery - was genetically made to be perfect and she hates it.
Leda - has a secret addiction.
Rylin - mother died and she has to take care of her and her little sister.
Eris - her life just falls apart throughout the story.
Watt - a genius who gets hired to spy on one of the upper level girls.
They are all so different yet they bring so much to the story. A lot of which could be spoilerific. So, there isn't a whole lot to say about them or the plot without giving anything away.
I loved every complication that was within this story: love, betrayal, backstabbing, secrets, and all those typical drama you would get in the everyday life. You really just gotta go in blind with this one. And I hope you liked it as much as I did! :)
