Overall D+
Firstly, I don't understand what the bid deal about this book is. I guess it's supposed to be eye-opening, maybe? Gripping? I don't know. The writing of this book threw me. It's written as a script, which I just don't like. I feel like I wasn't given enough to care about the characters or what happened to them.
Characters
The only character I even remember is Steven and it isn't because he's all that great of a character. It's because the way that the story is written, I barely followed who the characters are. I just didn't.
Setting
Again, it's the format. I didn't feel there with him.
Plot
If I don't care about the characters, then I don't care about the plot. That's pretty much it.
