It is going to be oh so difficult to be able to write a coherent review because this book literally chewed up and spit me out. It took everything out of me but made sure to give it right back. I'm smiling like a damn loon because of how incredibly amazing this book was. It lived up to it's hype and then some.

To be honest, I wasn't sure if I wanted to read this right away. The format was what kind of threw me. Having an entire story be told through emails, chat logs and other such things, I thought for sure I wouldn't like it. I felt like I would be missing a lot of the story and things would just get way too confusing. I was wrong. Oh god, was I wrong. Having the story written this way made it much more dynamic. I felt like I was living each of those moments with each of those characters.

I loved the relationship between Kady and Ezra, even when they were barely speaking. Kady is such a badass. I love that she is good with computers. It helps to normalize that women can be into computers and it's completely okay. She knows who she is and she isn't going to apologize for it. She is strong and takes no nonsense from anybody. But I loved how she showed weakness and emotion. My heart bled for her during the rough parts. I cheered for her during the victories. Ezra was awesome too. He knew when he messed up and owned up to it. He was the first to apologize and he actually listened to Kady! The chat logs between those two just made me laugh. They are both so damn sassy, strong willed and stubborn. I loved it!

ADIAN was creepy to me but in a strange weird way, I liked it. I know that a lot of people really liked him but man, he was something else. I guess I liked him. He made me like him. I've never had a character force me to like him when all instinct told me not too. I liked how his part of the story was told. The black pages and white lettering was a really cool effect. The way the wording was all over the page was pretty sweet as well. I even liked all the garbled code. It made him really come alive as a robot...AI....whatever the hell he is.

I just can't get over how cool this book was. It was like nothing I have ever read. I hope that my review made some sort of sense. I really did try to focus my excitement into something cohesive. I very most highly recommend this. Don't let the formatting of this book scare you away. I promise, it is worth it. Be prepared to have your heart ripped out, stomped on and thrown right back at you. Your emotions will be at edge the entire time. But I promise. It is worth it.
