2.0

I wanted to know what happened to Libby Rhodes but, goodness, I'm not sure it was worth it. I could barely keep track of what was going on. There are too many threads that Blake is trying to keep out of a knot. Much of this book felt like just the middle of a long novel. So, yes, another cliffhanger. I don't know if I have it in me to read another Atlas series book though.
