I borrowed this based on reviews but I didn’t really like it. Maybe it’s because dystopia isn’t usually the genre I go for but I wanted to be adventurous and try something new.
The plot has potential but I feel that since it’s a YA book, they made it a little too mild. Less deaths, less failures etc than I would expect for a dystopian premise. The ending was very sudden too, and not in a cliffhanger way but in a “what the heck?” way. So I don’t think I will be proceeding with the other books in the series.
