Scott Westerfeld comes up with a fascinating new world in his Midnighters series. It's a brilliant concept to begin with, and one that only Westerfeld could ever have come up with. This book was a sci-fi book that had an everyday, relatable, twist to it and that would be enjoyed by everyone. I enjoy...
