Pretty Good
I think that this book was much better than the first one, which had completely useless details. This book isn't the best book I've ever read. It keeps my attention but it won't keep me from putting it down. The climax was pretty good but I thought the climax in Ember was better. It makes me curious to read the next one. I would read it again, but if you're someone who'll get bored easily by easy books then this would not be the book for you.

This book is not the best book I ever read but it was ok. I mean that the first one was great! and I really liked that one .I think that this one was kind of boring and dragged along in some parts but I hope the next one is much better

EXTREMELY TICKED OFF AND DISSAPOINTED
you don't want to hear a lie... you want to hear the truth... and the truth is that honestly... this book sucked. no kidding. it was NOT entertaining, and it was about as far away from suspenseful as anything can get. i was EXTREMELY DISSAPOINTED, after reading the first which i thought was magnificently terrific! so read the first one! but not the second. i about the first one hundred pages of the first and then i just couldn't take it anymore. trust me, don't read it!
