It was an amazing book with a lot, A LOT of plot twists and it kept me on my toes don’t know who to love and who to hate.
Really like the plot idea and the premise of the book, some things were a little predictable and cliche but super worth it! Can’t wait to read the rest of the series

I was intrigued by the idea of the story and how it would play out, and often found myself not knowing what outcome to root for throughout, which I deem as a positive. However, the book does hold a strong resemblance to other YA dystopian novels I’ve read (Hunger Games, Divergent) and I’m never a fan of first-person in books. 

There were parts I didn’t understand nor like, such as the plan that gets developed near the end. Considering that the characters have known each other for only about a month, they were really quick to rely on an assumption and was already pretty weak in itself.  

Nonetheless, I’m not one to abandon a book series and will be reading until the end. I’m not jumping at the need to move forward, but I am excited to see where the story goes.
