I felt like I was watching a Turtle fall asleep. Oh, and also this book was definitely written for young readers, and is a little too discreet for adults. Probably wouldnt reccomend this book to anyone, unless they're really big on the whole dystopian society thing. The sisters' powers are boring and without variation. There are no good surprises, and the story ends in a cliff hanger (one that the reader is supposed to be shocked by, but we can see coming for three quarters of the book). The story is a cool idea, but isnt really well executed. The writer is on a level with the author of the Twilight novels. Most of the dramatic lines were read with the same surprised/ startled inflection throughout the story with bo good variation to get the reader really emotionally attached like can happen in a well read story. She had a voice for the elderly, one for men, and one for women. The performance by the voice actor was definitely lacking. I am a huge fan of fantasy, horror, and especially historical fiction, so i wanted to give this fantasy/dystopian society a try. I had heard good things about this series, however I was disappointed.
