The Atlas Six

I'm not sure how I feel about this book; that almost never happens. I... suppose I cared about most of the characters, in that I didn't want to see any of them die, except perhaps Callum, but that was so clearly the  intended reaction, it feels a little like being manipulated to go along with it - ironically. I also didn't see the twist at the end coming, or rather twists. This books feels highly intelligent, but perhaps too much so at times? The magic system was interesting, in that it felt grounded and real, but it was also a little bogged down by all the science-y-ness (yes, that's a word now) which, ironically, lessened the magical feel. In short, it feels as though this book quite possibly short-circuited my brain (which isn't necessarily a bad thing), and I'm not going to rate it until I figure out how I feel about it.
