review 1: I was born to love this book: I knit, read cyberpunk and relish descriptive immersive novels. BUT the authors writing felt so ... Young, and not that I don't love YA - I devoured Hunger Games for goodness sakes - but there was a level of shallowness (yes, I know it's a story about fashion sex and consumerism) that kept insulting me every time I tried to make it to the next chapter. Glad some enjoy this book, but so not for me.
review 2: Well, it was quite a unique book. I usually don't go in for books where the characters have a special language (like elvish or whatever in Tolkien) but I guess since all the made up vocabulary was yarn and fabric based, I had a fighting chance of understanding it and it didn't bug me as much. :) Although I have to say I would ha... moreve rated it higher if I didn't feel like the ending sort of derailed the story he was telling throughout the book. But definitely worth a read especially if you're looking for something different. less
