It was an okay book. I don't know if I'd recommend it to others- it lacked a lot of substance and felt very much like a book obsessed with the Protagonist being fat rather than aliens like it was meant to be.
I liked it though, and if you were looking for a smooth flowing, easy read it would be ideal.
