Definitely feels very different from JCP's other books. I agree that this one is much more world-building driven than character-driven. Which would be fine, if I weren't left with so many questions about the world-building. Being left with questions that felt so crucial made me feel let down at t...
4.5 Stars. Can you imagine what life could be like 300 years in the future?You can’t?

From drinking coffee, reading, trying to guess Will's facial expression --- all of t...
3.5 stars I'm a sucker for amazing cover art, and I'm a sucker for JCP! This is sort of a modern, gay Logan's Run. Ernest is content in his life and has one month left until he turns 30 years old, and therefore, 1 month of retirement before Reclaim (aka: they kill your ass!). I love a good dysto...
