I did love this book in that when I wasn't reading, I was thinking about it constantly and truly wanting to know what was going to happen next. However, I am a character-motivated reader, not plot-motivated, and even after 450 pages I was not interested in any of the induvidual characters. Save, perhaps, Athena, but we don't truly get to KNOW her in the way I would have liked.

I wanted to love Lore herself, but her unwillingness to be open and vulnerable with anyone, even the reader, made it nearly impossible to connect with her. Even by the end of the book I felt like she was keeping us at arms length despite the direness of her journey.
