"Very interesting book that makes you think about the future of humanity and living in the future. This story takes place in the 2020s but the world is warned from future humans that the earth is coming to an end and this causes chaos. I was so hooked that i looked up the series and got the other book to read immediately after i finished. "

"I thought that this book was actually pretty good! It’s hard for me to find something that keeps me interested but this did! Definitely would read the second book."
