Review:
Lets take a moment to appreciate this absolutely gorgeous cover!
Yeah?
Moment over.
I really loved this book, particularly the end. I feel like I say this with so many books, that I loved them but that if because I tend to read books that I am excited about and know im going to love or are super hyped. Anyways, I was super excited about this because it all seemed super Gossip Girl-ish and I am a huge fan of Gossip Girl
The whole world of the tower is just super cool but scary to me, like some people dont leave the tower at all, there is absolutely everything in this tower, even fake parks and sunlight, like I cant begin to comprehend how this thing was built and how massive it would look like in real life!
Which also leads to the whole, what sort of things must happen inside of this tower.
There is drama of all sorts, stealing,cheating, drugs, alcohol, incest, and good old basic lying.
It started with the fall, goes back some time until the time of the fall and the funeral. The whole time you are reading this is makes you wonder oh my gosh, who is going to fall and you think you know or you want it to be a specific person because you hate them but in the end, you are just as surprised as the person who actually falls!
I was hooked from page 1 and by god you will be too!
Katharine McGee, you did it, you have made the book that I will not shut up about just as I wouldnt shut up about Gossip Girl until I finished it.
Recommend it?
Yes, for all and all Gossip Girl fans
