The world building is amazing and I give credit to the author for coming up with such an interesting and original world with great attention to detail. The story had some pacing issues though. Not sure what the second book would be about...

I had the same thoughts when I read this one as well, the world-building is creepy but really good but I didn't love the book either.Audrey (holes In My brain)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02092399404120477032noreply@blogger.com
