In fact, you should probably go scrub your toilets or give the cat a bath instead of reading it. I could keep ranting, but I'm not finding this book very 'de-vicious' (yeah, another stupid slang word). Even for a dystopian type book, that is not believable. This book also needs more back story for why the parents were okay with hooking their brilliant child up to a tube for 3 years without ever really following up. Erin's role I understand, but what's the deal with the other girl? Why is Angel connected to this chick? I'd like that explained. Then there are the old friends/enemies of Freesia/Francine.

For instance, what is up with Angel? Why does she keep saying no one likes her? A little explanation would be nice. There are so many things that were not resolved. Several times.īad characters lead me to pet peeve #3: unanswered questions. Not that she had much/any to behind with. The phrase 'sell out' comes to mind when thinking about her, which made her credibility plummet. She was horribly self-absorbed and all over the place. Plus, he did everything the crazy mom wanted, which just made him seem spineless.

Her dad might have been okay, but he wasn't around enough. Her family should be taken outside and tied to a tree and left to the elements. I'm struggling to find something redeeming. Spending time in Bubble World just makes her more of one when she returns. Not a single character in this book made an impact on me, except for maybe the 10 lines the English teacher had towards the end. Pet peeve #2 that was breached: superficial characters.

If you're making crap up, at least make it make sense. It looks too much like scummy therefore, it's a terrible choice in made up words. For instance, what the H is 'un-utter' supposed to be? Gah! And 'scrummy'? You do not describe something that is supposed to be amazing as 'scrummy'. and confused the mess out of me for a good portion of the book. Unfortunately, in Bubble World, instead of adding to the setting it just got annoying. I understand that sometimes this is needed to help create a setting (like in Scott Westerfield's series).

First off, I really get annoyed when books create words. This book managed to hit some of my bookish pet peeves, which ruined it for me.
