I so almost gave this 3 stars! Not because it was terrible but because of the main character!

She is fresh into death so I understand her feelings towards it but she was so adamant about making it a safe place for her sister to be welcomed into that it seemed like she didn’t actually accept her death.

Throughout the book she is constantly trying to convince everyone that the Residents (A.I) can’t be all that bad and they can coexist and all other characters around her disagreed. At one point I even believed that she was just caving to their whims so she didn’t get kicked out but was still defying them 100% because she couldn’t give up on her sisters afterlife. She is still very much alive but all she can think about is when her sister dies.

My biggest problem was the “romance”. The relationship she had with Gil was volatile at worst and indifferent at best but yet she had feelings for him the entire time he was mean to her. Not a school yard bully either. He seemed to truly hate her and I saw no connection.

This book has a slight "The Host" and "Divergent" kind of feel to it and it is fairly pop culture centered as well.

But you gave this 4 stars, you ask? Well... while I was having these issues, that ending made up for it almost tenfold. Everything makes sense in the end, right?
