For the most part, I liked the overall story. I just felt like it was longer than it needed to be. Yet, for the length of the book, I am still not sure I understand the world that the author created. It was a mix of dystopian and supernatural with a changed world, genetics and gods. Yeah, it was a bit confusing at times. I did like the characters. I especially liked Mae. I thought she was seriously kick-ass. As for the love scenes, I thought they were pretty underwhelming and could have been left out. If you are going to include a scene like that, then make it at least a bit interesting. The one thing I liked was the twists in the end and the solution to the mystery. The ending left things wide open for the sequel. I just hope there is no love triangle in the next book!
