Short Review: This was an interesting book for sure. So all these kids have to figure out clues to save their "line", which i am a bit confused on, is that line all their family or all the people where they live, and whats stopping others from moving to the area when they notice someone is getting close to being a winner, would they live at that point or no? That aside. I hate Christopher. I had the audio book and i can say with 100% truth, don't get the audio, read the actual book. They have one narrator for all the POVs which is the biggest pet peeve i have, and some of it is horrible read out loud. At one point i thought my book was stuck repeating some shit, but no, it's how it was supposed to be read...
