I really enjoyed this book. I liked the concept behind the main character and the overall world. The chapters were nice and short which made it a really easy read. I'm unsure what to make of Adam as a character but I love Kenji and Juliette atm. I hear book lovers have so much love for Warner but I haven't seen much to prove these feelings yet. I'm very interested to see where this series goes.

Honestly, this was pretty good. But I'm not sure if I'm going to continue the series. The writing is kind of bland and there are tons of words that just don't add anything and are there just to be there. So, that's one part I don't like about it.

This was an amazing book that I could barely bring myself to put down with dystopian themes and lines that will pull at your heartstrings. I would definitely recommend reading this! I’m am definitely going to get the series as soon as I have a chance to!

Oh. My. God. I was so excited to start this series, it didn’t disappoint. There were a few things that I wasn’t a fan of that I will talk about later
Juliette. I have mixed feelings about her. I felt like she was a little “pick me” at times, but I almost couldn’t blame her because of everything she has been through. I thought a little closer to the end she got better. There was something about her that bothered me and I can’t quite put my finger on it. Her power is super intense. I wish we got to see it a little bit more.
Adam. Holy shit, I CANNOT STAND his stinky dinky ass. He only cares about himself and his feelings. He does reckless stuff and doesn’t care who or what he hurts in the process. I feel like he is a horrible person for Juliette. He brings her down as a character. They didn’t even talk in school yet he sacrificed his whole life and career for his fantasy of Juliette. The only reason he “loves” Juliette is based off of her looks. The only credit I can give him is that he is a good older brother.
Warner. I feel like he is mad out to be this monster, but her really isn’t. Let me explain. Now here is a real man, who actually cares about Juliette’s wellbeing. He wants Juliette to embrace her full potential and not be put in some asylum and treated like a monster. He wants her to have self love and confidence in who she is. Warner doesn’t know her but he wants to, that’s why he takes her out and walked around with her, and shows her stuff. He doesn’t comment about her looks as much as Adam does. I think he just is an overall better man. Adam is dog shit compared to Warner.
Kenji. He is a comedic gift from god. I love him and we really haven’t gotten that much of him.
The world building in this book was so good. It was super easy to understand. I felt like I could easily visualize the setting.
There is one other thing that bothered me. I thought that Juliette was supposed to be special butother people have powers.
I am going right into the next books. I can’t wait to see how this story will progress. I can see how series will be 5 stars.
