A review by marshthemartian
The Hit by Melvin Burgess

3.0

I thought this was a good idea for a story. However, I'm not sure how I feel about the execution. I liked the novel in itself. However, I felt that Adam was kind of whiney, and Lizzie was an okay female character. The idea that a drug will allow you 7 days of greatness for the ultimate price, death was interesting to me. I felt though that the author did not know how to make up a story around it. I felt that a lot of things were just thrown in to add drama. All in all I thought this book okay, and I liked it, kind of. I would recommend it, and I know this review is all over the place, but I can't really articulate my feelings towards this book.
