It was alright. Interesting enough to keep me reading, but it was to romancy. It didnt focus on the survial enough. How they actually hunted, built shelter, made the paper, made thr cloth. It wouldve been much better even with all the romance if they focused a little more on the survival and escape. And how the island Nil actually came to be. One theory was thrown out, but I wouldve liked to have known, how this alternate dimension, and shimmers came about.

I absolutely loved it!! Best book I've read in a long time. But I do wish the author would write a sequel. I recommend this book for people who like action, thriller, romance, and mystery.
