I can be generous when rating books sometimes, but I must say that this is a 5 star + title. There's no way it deserves any less. This is a FANtastic entry into YA science fiction. The world building and character building are exceptional. I found the title to be a super fast read as I couldn't wait to see what happened next. I appreciated the multicultural aspect and inclusion of characters of diverse ethnic backgrounds. I further appreciated that the title endeavored to show that the characters were stronger, despite their differences, when they worked together to solve the puzzle and mystery that is Babel. Somehow the corporation keeps upping their game. Characters are expendable and the rules seem ever-changing. I can't wait to immerse myself in the next title in the series.

I received an ARC in exchange for my honest review.
