“This book had such potential, but after reading it I'm left feeling very annoyed. I expect a certain amount of repetition from a book in a series just to catch up the readers who don't start with the first book. However, there was no need to mention in EVERY chapter that Buffy was a traitor. No need to constantly repeat the thing with the Coke and the bike and Shaun explaining how George is a voice in his head. We got it the first time.
*spoiler* Also, I always read George and Shaun's relationship as being incredibly co-dependent. But after reading other Goodreads reviews it seems that the author confirmed the two were sleeping together. That's just creepy.
Finally, casting Shaun as the narrator of this book was a misstep. I care about what happens to every character except him, and he's the main protagonist. That's a problem. George was a more compelling narrator, and it seems that the author agrees given the ending of Deadline.”
