The book starts with a girl in the Troian Center called Jane #65. This is because in the Troian Center a girl is Jane with a number while a boy is John and a number.
I found the story slow at the start but it soon picks up. It is about a girl who learns who she really is and what she can do. I think it’s an amazing story.

The book starts off a couple of years after his Uncle's death and just as Mark is getting used to seeing a probation officer for previous offenses that are only clarified at the end. Up until this point the book is quite slow paced and very boring as well.
