Intensity

Oh man I loathe Chyna's backstory and find her unreal, she defies suspension of disbelief and it pisses me off. Vess was well done, although I do find the combination of synesthesia and being super literal a bit much. Ariel is okay, but she's more of a plot device than an actual character and find the lack of therapy that she receives at the end of the book to be criminal.
With all that being said the genre work of it was well done, I wanted to keep reading.
