Hleo

Although not my typical genre, Hleo is a thoroughly enjoyable book. I particularly enjoyed Hannah's inner thoughts. So typically a teenager. I felt the interaction between the characters was good, however, I felt the "sympathy date" for Ryan was a little harsh. I really like the action and tension in the library scene. Very well written. I was on the edge of my seat. Since I am not familiar with this genre, it would have been helpful to have a phonetic pronunciation of Hleo. I stumbled over it all through the book which was a little frustrating. Finally is just read it a LEO. That being said, I am looking forward to more adventures with Hannah and Ethan.
