This one is a win because of the main character, Lillith. The writing style is interesting, and in any other author without McGowan's flair, I would have said 'do another edit', but after a while of reading, I was enjoying the speech pattern (i.e. 'that' used 3 times in a sentence, normally a huge no no, really worked for this character). I loved Lillith's irreverent, don't give a s*** attitude. It was priceless! The male protagonist, Finn, was, in my opinion weak, and I didn't see how someone as strong as Lillith could be attracted to a man that could not match her own strength of character. But, he was a sympathetic character, and I could see how the author wanted the reader to see the strength of being a survivor-- but, he did it chemically, and I have a personal bias against drug use. That aside, awesome story with excellent character development for the main female lead. Excellent job!
