My only complaint was I thought the costume descriptions were a bit too drawn out, otherwise it was terrific. <abbr><em>Joanne´s last blog post: <a href="http://bookzombie.blogspot.com/2009/02/words-undone.html" rel="nofollow">Words Undone…</a></abbr></em> When I first picked this book up I was very leery of the Battle Royale similarity, but I had to admit that Collins took this story in an entirely unique direction.
