Critiques

OK, so reading the blurb made this book sound quite exciting 'How was anyone to know that one day the sun would just burn up their lives?' ect ect.. Basically, there's too much radiation to go outside but violet Niles is a slightly adventurous teen who breaks all the rules and goes outside!
The setting of this book is very imaginative. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with a bit of imagination but it was so confusing and unrealistic (as were most of the aspects of this book) that I ended up reading a lot of pages twice.
I don't think I got this book at all, it took me forever to read and I still don't think I know the whole storyline.
It was very confusing how the storyline would go slowly for long periods of time and then everything would go so fast.
I never really connected to the characters because the background of them wasn't very detailed. I don't mean to be offensive but I'm not in any rush to read any more of her books. The only good point was the futuristic world she was living in. It's a unique and interesting thought that the world one day in hundreds of years might be similar.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend this book.

3 kids, Nick, Alex and Indie are chosen to star in a new reality TV show called “Kids Rule OK”. The 3 will have cameras strapped to them and use the power to change things that are wrong in their lives. The problem is, their Mum has run away with an Australian and their Dad has just lost his job – problems that can’t be fixed with a TV camera. They soon learn that having their every word and deed broadcast 24/7 has its rewards and its drawbacks
