I read several rave reviews about Acevedo's work, so I gave this book a try. One thing in its favor is that it is NOT a romance! Yay!
On the other hand, Felix Gomez is just a little too annoyingly prickly for me to give a damn about him. And the plot? Let's just say that as soon as I learned what “EBE” stood for, any chance of liking the book was gone. Too many clichés! Certain plot points were never adequately explained, leaving holes big enough to drive a semi through without scraping the sides.
I'm taking the other books off my to-read shelf. Life is too short to read boring novels.
I enjoyed this as an audiobook. It took a little while for me to get into it though. But eventually I did and then did not want to put it down. It was interesting enough for me to read the next book in the series.
