My Goodreads review:
Oh my goodness that ending destroyed me….
That aside, what an amazing surprise this was. I didn’t have plans to read this anytime soon but was in the mood for a good dystopian and this one did not disappoint. It was fast-paced, had good characters, and the concept of the world was very interesting. There really wasn’t much to complain about. If you are looking to read a solid dystopian, this is one I think most would enjoy. |
