Enjoyed, but I personally didn't care for the ending. It was not as good as Ready Player One, but worth a read.

While I enjoyed the book and the characters, and thought some of the tensions in her family were very realistic, I was furious about the ending, which sucked.

Got my attention right away and kept it, but the ending was unsatisfying in my opinion. I cannot write much on that - do not want to spoil it for anyone -- maybe the follow-on book Brainrush II will resolve it. As it is, the ending is written as though the author had about 5 minutes of battery left in his laptop. Still, all in all, a really good read.

I still gave this book 4 stars because it was well-written and engaging. But I did not like the ending. There was no satisfaction in the way the story wrapped up and while that may imitate real life, it was a disservice to the reader.

An easy, quick and entertaining read where I was drawn into the main character but the ending came out of nowhere and was not the least bit satisfying! The author builds interest in the story line easily but the ending is abrupt and lackluster.

I feel disappointed. Frankly, though, I don't know if I'm disappointed because of what I consider to be an unjust, anticlimactic ending, or if it's simply because the ending completely caught me off guard and was an unexpected twist. Regardless, the book was a page-turner, and up until the last section, I enjoyed it. I may read it again, just so I can feel more decisive.

This is not the genre I usually read, so I was surprised to find I enjoyed it. I don't like its ambiguous ending, though. I'd much prefer to know how Peter and Bea's relationship was resolved.

This was a weird one for me. I liked the majority of the book, even though it wasn't really what I was expecting (thought it would be darker), but I wasn't a fan of the ending. Not only did it feel like everything wrapped up way too nicely and conveniently, it also felt rushed.

I enjoyed reading this but was disappointed with the ending. The end just needed something more in my opinion.

The novel was definitely interesting, though I feel the main character was a bit weak-minded. I gave it 3 stars because I wasn't too fond of the ending. I also titled it biased review, simply because I would (personally) never make the choice of the main character.

I thought it was interesting, however, I didn't like the end.

Overall, good book. I didn't absolutely love the ending, but enjoyed the book as a whole.

I enjoyed reading this book, but I'm not quite sure that it lives up to all of the hype it keeps getting. The story is well written, and keeps readers guessing right up to the last few chapters, but I can't help but feel slightly underwhelmed with the ending. Is as though you wait to have this sense of "OMG I didn't see that coming! What a great plot twist!", but instead it was more of a "Oh that's where they decided to go with this.  . . Ok then". I still give this book 4 stars, because it was an enjoyable read, but don't expect it to rock your world.

I liked the book very much but found the end disappointingly anti-climactic. I personally like that it's written from the many perspectives of the people involved in the case and had no issues with that, but I found that the ending took the easy way out.

I was conflicted as to how to rate this book. On one hand, I really liked the plot and the pace. It is well-written and the plotline is a very cool concept. On the other end, the ending to me felt wrong - as if the author should have revealed more (can't say much more about that without publishing a spoiler). However, that may have been the author's intent - for the reader to draw their own conclusions. Would recommend to fans of the paranormal genre.

I am writing this review with mixed feelings about the book. I personally anticipated the ending before I was halfway through the book, so I am surprised that many people reviewing the book felt cheated/upset/even angry at the ending. There were many little items in the story that pretty clearly led to one and only one conclusion, so my disappointment was more to do with the fact that I was not surprised by the ending. Having said that, the story line was very original and adopted a pattern I have not come across before. All in all, a book worth reading.

I thought the plot was good, the way of writing was really great but did not like the ending (if that is what you could call it).
