I rate this fiction book 5 out of 5. I thought the author was very creative. It was amazing how she could come up with the characters and the different scenes.It felt like I was actually in the book.

Good review - I just finished this book, and thought you had a good summary of events. I, too, was amazed at Shusterman's ability to create such an amazing new "universe" and fill it with such imaginative details!
