REVIEW
Easiest 5 stars I’ve ever given! The Thousandth Floor is an incredibly entertaining read. With the amazing cast of characters and the fun teen drama; it’s no wonder why this book was so hyped!
You can see from the synopsis that this book has five point of views (POVs) and with such a large cast of character’s it’s easy for an author to make a mess of things but Katharine Mcgee did such a wonderful job because each character felt separate and distinct. They all played their parts in the story without once feeling like their “voices” were blending together.
The actual plot of the story was great. It reads almost like a soap opera. I mean rich kids in the future? You couldn’t ask for a better setting for drama with a capital D!
The only negative thing I have to say about this book is that with 5 POV’s its was a little disorienting at first trying to keep up with all the story lines but once I got into it the pages flew by way to quickly!
If you’re looking for a quick fun read (full of juicy drama) this one is the book for you!
*ahem* Do you guys notice anything different about my blog? No, it’s not a new font. I changed my design! I just wasn’t satisfied with the old one. Hope you guys like it… Anyway
