Altered

Didn't really engage me, but I think it may be my fault for placing too high hopes in it.

This was one of those fast-paced easy reads with a lot of action that takes the spotlight from world-building and character development/relationships. I didn't enjoy the main character's personality all that much and history between her and the Sam, the love interest, was not explained very well–in my opinion, it wasn't explained at all. The action, however, was the thing that kept me reading and finishing the book in just a few sittings. There were a LOT of plot holes and explanations missing. I would recommend this to those in a reading slump that are looking for something that isn't necessarily fully fleshed out but instead will sweep them up in the action-packed plot, and it's fast pacing and thrills.
