the middle part
i was also not a fan of the whole "she's the only girl among hundreds of touch-starved men and forced to wear skimpy clothing" trope that basically carried the whole first half of the book. it was silly how obsessed everyone seemed to be with her, and how "hot" everyone thought she was even though she was literally rotting in a cell for more than 250 days with only one meal a day and nearly no means to hygiene. who are you kidding?
i also didn't buy the romance at all.
and he fell in love with her because she was, uh, nice? because she gave up her seat to some girl on the bus? man, those two really are a low ass bar.
and you know a book is bad when the mysogynist side-character is the funniest guy in the book...
the action sequences were absolute bullshit, too. not them literally dodging bullets LMAO and "our movements made it hard for them to aim at us". girl what-
you're a slow ahh human being and not the flash, what are you on about...
if i were warner i'd fire all of the soldiers because a 15-year-old who's played ONE round of cod or valorant would be better at shooting than those nerds.
so yeah, needless to say, 80% of this book was teenage girl fantasy nonsense. i didn't hate the ending though. the whole concept—the worldbuilding—has potential. i'm just sad this potential didn't reveal itself until the very end. but i've heard people say the sequels are better, so maybe......

It has everything I ever wanted from a book; superpowers, dystopian world, realistic romance, and she doesn't immediately fall for the guy who
I obviously can't wait to find out why people are so in love with a particular character. But oh my god, it's such a breath of fresh air. I'm also so glad to see that not even characters I hate make me hate the book. Actually, those characters make the book even more fun to read because of how well written they are.
