A solid read. It didn't bowl me over, but I really liked the world building in this one and there's enough mystery and suspense in it to keep me reading. There's a decent teen romance here as well, secondary to the main plot. Although the romance's pacing is fine I still have an unexplained niggling feeling about it ( Kaylee genuinely seems to connect with Nash, and he is the only one who can calm her or know what's going on with her "panic attacks" which brings the two of them closer fairly quickly. It just bugs me that his motivations don't seem 100% clear, and that I know why Kaylee likes him (he's charming despite her reservations), but not vice versa (but this could be a downside of the first person POV). Hmm.), which may be splitting hairs. I'm interested enough to probably read the second book My Soul to Save which comes out in January 2010.
