I really liked this story concept and it was done pretty well. The only issue I had with it that knocked it from being a higher rating is that the story has up to 8 different POV that I can remember to list of (not sure if that is the exact accurate amount) I enjoy multiple POV's however till I really got to know all the character and they started to cross a little bit, it caused me a little confusing at first and I was trying not to mix up peoples stories. Although I did enjoy almost all of the character POVs, if you have read it you probably know how I didn't like reading from lol. But other than the initial confusion I really enjoyed this book and though it was done really well and was a awesome concept (even if kinda terrifying in a way)
