DNF. I got halfway, not much plot and it just wasn't my vibe, nothing specifically wrong with it, I just didn't like it. Bought several others in the DNF. I got halfway, not much plot and it just wasn't my vibe, nothing specifically wrong with it, I just didn't like it. Bought several others in the series but I probably won't read. (I do not rate books that I DNF. Since I did not finish the entire book, I feel that it is a diservice to rate the book as a whole when I only read a part of it)...more
DNF. The writing was confusing. I couldn't tell what was a metaphor and what was acutally a part of the story. Even the dialogue was off, it didn't seDNF. The writing was confusing. I couldn't tell what was a metaphor and what was acutally a part of the story. Even the dialogue was off, it didn't seem to flow well and felt forced. There were several pages that were unnecessary. This was written as a naration to the reader directly. I would have pushed through and finished it, I tried to, but I honestly have no idea what this was about and I don't know what I even read. I do not rate my books that I DNF. ...more

I actually DNF'd this and it was unexpected. I was 30% of the way through and I decided that I was going to stop. This was an odd DNF for me. I really liked it from the beginning and I was very interested in it. It grabbed me from the start. But then it started to go downhill from like page 100. Maybe I'm just not in the right mindset or something. But I kept falling asleep reading it and I was becoming disinterested. I got to the point where it was starting to be a chore to read it. I don't know why though. Maybe it was just in a lull in the book and I just hadn't got to the good part yet? But it was good so I don't know. This one is definitely one that I will try again. Most of my DNF's, I have no plans to continue later on but I certainly will with this one.
Below are my SPOILER thoughts and reactions as I read through the book:
(view spoiler)[ Pg. 81: Wow, having an implant to replay memories with senses? That's so cool! I want one! Awe, they got engaged! It's too early for a happy ending... I feel like something bad is about to happen as she goes looking for the drone. Um, wtf? Like i can't even mentally picture what is happening with Kira and Neghar. Neghar spit up something alive? Just from coming into contact with the air? And Kira released "spikes" from her skin, killing everyone?! Like holy shit. So much is happening!
Pg. 133: Well Carr is an ass but an understandable one. And this suit/ alien thing on her skin would make a badass armor in a battle. I kind of hope she can utilize it. Well the alien that boarded the ship sounds terrifying (hide spoiler)]...more
DNF. So very dry and boring. 5 chapters in and all that happened was that she got off work, saw a dead body, and went back the next morning to fix herDNF. So very dry and boring. 5 chapters in and all that happened was that she got off work, saw a dead body, and went back the next morning to fix her car. And backstories inside backstories. I could have tried harder and make it to 100 pages but I decided not to. Maybe I'll pick it back up some other time but I no longer have any interest in reading this novel. I don't give ratings for DNF'd books. I feel that's it's a disservice to the auther to rate a book based on the small portion I read. ...more

I'm actually having a difficult time staying with this book. It hasn't grabbed me. It only has a few more pages to grab me before I DNF it. I've fallen asleep reading twice now. Hopefully it will pick up soon. I gave it my 100 page rule and truly gave it a solid effort. I really did want to like this book but the writing just wasn't for me. ...more
