It's always hard and risky to make up a new dialect for a book that's hard to understand. It can put a lot of people off. But I didn't have a huge problem with the language used in this book. I thought the premise seemed really interesting and I wanted to keep reading. I want to know more about Andra's past and Zhade's present. This could be a really good sci fi book! I love the cover, the colors stand out so much, it's very vibrant.
