Problem after problem arises and while they are written as grand issues, they don't feel that big because there are so many of them. Some of the characters that we meet are annoying and I just wanted Alex to move on so I didn't have to read about them anymore.

The good parts were when the big things were actually happening. Wondering what would happen next with those moments kept me reading and interested.

What I would have liked was a more character driven instead of action and plot driven story which seems to be a strange request to make for a dystopian action novel, but I can still kvetch about things.
