This kept me interested without being overly engrossing. I wanted to know what was going to happen next, but I wasn't necessarily desperate to get back to reading.
The Chain, as an idea, is terrifyingly smart. Obviously to actually be a part of such a thing would be terrible, but the fact is, this organization worked for its purpose. There wasn't a whole lot of surprises or unexpected events; no gasping out loud or expressions of shock. Mostly, there was the feeling of anger, fear, and uncertainty. You can't read this and condemn Rachel for her choices - because what would you do?
That, perhaps, is the main purpose of this book. Love can make you do all kinds of things: stupid things, silly things, good things, and even bad - horrible - things. The Chain makes you think about your morals. And a book that makes you think twice about your own beliefs is worth the read.
