The Thousandth Floor by Katharine McGee
5.0
"If you aren't sure, definitely you aren't in love." - Katherine McGee, The Thousandth Floor
•
The story is set in the year 2118, and focuses on the familiar problems of rich teens (and some poor) with too much time and money on their retinal scanners. There’s an element of economic tension: status in The Thousandth Floor is measured by how far you live above street level: the higher the floor, the more rarefied the air. Falling in love with someone from a much higher or lower floor is inherently problematic.
My favourite character would be Watt. He so smart and adorable and ladies back off his mine. His so sweet. The characters didn't come out fake towards the world they are born in. The author built the characters very interestingly. I'll say that the end was my favourite when things started spilling out. It was a gripping story and an amazing page-tuner.
There wasn't anything I hated about the book. I did get annoyed with Leda a lot but that's her character and I did any up accepting her irritating personality. If it wasn't for her characteristic the story wouldn't have been this great.
If you're into sci-fi, futuristic novels filled with drama then this book is for you. The novel is aimed for young adults. I gave the book 5 stars and can't wait for the sequel.
