First off i have only read half the book but i feel compelled to write this now. The scene setting and the plot caught my interest straight off the bat, but as i started to read more of the story i realized that it has a major flaw! The of this book does not know how to indirectly flesh out her characters. He has characters jump to conclusions about other characters in ways that are just not possible. Just because the characters are genius does not mean they know everything, nor does it mean that they should tell the reader what is on another characters mind. To write a great novel it is important to know haw to indirectly build your characters. Having it come from the characters' minds all the time does not develop your characters well. The reader should be able to see a characters attributes from his actions. The difference is having someone say "oh he is  a kind person" or having your character do stuff like helping a little girl who fell and skinned her knee. Despite my little rant i am still going to finish the book and i do still think that this author has a lot of potential so it is still worth giving a try. For those of you who have read this I apologize if this seems to switch between being addressed to a potential reader and the author but this is my first real written review so i will work on that in my next one. Have fun reading!
