Apparently, this book started out as a choose-your-own-adventure and it grieves me that it didn't stay that way, because that could have been awesomely revolutionary. Instead we get something that is neither fish nor fowl, a book that keeps changing its mind about what it wants to be, a kludge-like story full of disparate pieces that never fit together. In short its a clunky, inelegant, headache-inducing experiment that's trying so damned hard to cram everything in, its annoying. I think the mantra, “Less is More” would have served this tale very, very well.

I won this advance reading copy through Goodreads so thank you to the publisher and I'm sorry I didn't like it more.
