Helpful Score: 4

Hmmm.... Pretty good, fast, and fun, if a little shallow. I kept waiting for the story to take a strong sci-fi turn or for things to get a little more traditionally romancey and flesh out some of the characters a bit more. And it turned out neither was the case! I was willing to go along with the way things turned out, though, and enjoyed the fact that the main characters were real adults -- albeit in very unreal situations at times! The book leaves a lot of unanswered questions in terms of world-building and plot if you're interested in anything but surface stuff. (Like, how'd the boys get involved then? Does this exist somehow for men? Is that why they're all going to bed early? If it exists all over, then how does anything on the planet get accomplished?!!)

Anyhooo, I zipped right through this -- it definitely kept me reading.
