The Door of No Return

This book is "The door of no return" but I like to call it the book of no return because this the book contains 394 pages and it took me a long time to finish. I'll get straight to the point. I did not love this book, which is disappointing because I wanted to. Certain elements of the book were quite well done, such as the setting, and the character Ashley. But despite an intriguing premise, the pacing was too uneven, and there were some plot points that did not ring true to me. I found Zac, the main character, to be naive, which took me out of the story too much. I liked Zac, and I was rooting for him, but the story was too much in his head, and an adventure needs more dialogue and action than thinking.

        

I really was into the book until around page one hundred. They thing started to trail off. Like I said it did have some good parts and most of the story took place in on his thoughts. I wish there was more interaction between the characters.

        

         

My over all review is 2 stars out of 5 just for the actual lack of sense of adventure and interaction. The book does not make you feel like your part of it or that he's actually accomplishing anything. I really wanted to like this book but it just fell flat.
