Finished! I liked it a lot, not for the story as I felt it really was targeted at the young adult male (which I no longer identify with in afraid), but for the ideas and some of the values. And the vision as well - of what will happen, and what might happen.

I am kinda half way through but lately lack motivation to pick it up again. It has some very neat parts for sure, but it feels overly US centric and the romance part is a bit forced IMHO.

Ah, that's a bit disappoing to hear but I'll take your word for it and it seem to be consistent with what people are saying in reviews. I'll give it a shot but it doesn't sound like a big page turner so I don't know if can finish it by the 25th.
