Review: OMG, this was awful

I started this book a while back, and after reading the first few chapters was just not interested.  More recently I noticed that it had a surprisingly high rating on Amazon so I thought I'd give it a second try.  I ended up reading the whole thing, and I have to say it was a big waste of time.There are an amazing number of grammatical mistakes, sentences that don't make sense, use of the wrong word and just generally poor/sloppy writing.  There are a lot of scenes that and visuals that make absolutely no sense.  For example, the whole process of throwing Asa and Charlotte into the lake with heavy lead weights, falling through the bottom of the lake into a room with elaborate painted murals.  What is that supposed to communicate about the plot or the organization that has kidnapped them?In the end, the story was flat and I was left not caring about the characters or the story.  The premise -- a plague-riddled world with a secret organization and an abundance of conspiracies could have worked out well.  I'm baffled at the number of positive reviews.
