I honestly brought this simply because it was on sale; i'd seen it around a lot and couldn't decide whether I actually wanted to read it or not - I'm pretty glad I decided to in the end!
This book is pretty different from the usual YA that I pick up and I think that's partly why it was so refreshing to read - because it was so different, and the plot was definitely nothing I had ever come across before which was nice.
It's pretty obvious from the description and the start of the book that *spoiler* somebody dies somewhere within this book; it's just a case of who, when and where? Although this book is full of mystery and adventure, as well as death, it is also a lot of 'what ifs?' and 'could have beens'. But none-the-less, I was hooked!
I always forget how much I love a mystery/adventure/thriller book until I pick one up again and completely indulge - despite not being totally into the idea of reading this book before I picked it up, surprisingly I finished in within a day - I liked it that much.
This book is easy to follow, with a lot of movie references (obviously good if you're a movie fanatic - if not, it's not totally necessary that you're aware of the references as all are explained relevant to context).
Overall, I'm not really sure how to 'review' this book as I can't really put my thoughts into words. It's just a really good book. Shocking and different, with relevant themes presented. You should definitely, definitely go and read!!!
