Especially since the author has plenty of real-life experience in the field. I hardly ever wanted to shake Clarke or yell at her. I liked her and some of the secondary characters and have already checked out the sequel.
If you're a fan of the genre, I think this one is worth a gander. Especially if you have KU.
