"This is not a book I would have picked myself but with someone’s recommendation I did….and I’m not sorry. I actually really enjoyed the first book and will definitely be finishing the rest of the series. "

"I didn’t know if I would like this dystopian romance,m; but I was surprised by how quickly I got through the chapters and how much I wanted to keep reading. I can’t wait to pick up the next book in the series."

"Honestly who doesn’t know about this series at this point? The plot is easy to follow and unique, imagine the Hunger Games + The Bachelor, and has complex characters!!"

"Ok while i don’t enjoy the ridiculous love triangle drama, the political drama of this dystopian society is so very interesting and makes it worth reading "

"I give this book a “meh”. I was not super intrigued and did not find myself necessarily WANTING to read, which are things you should feel when reading a book. I believe that by the time i was finished with 1/3 of this book, I was forcing myself to read. Great concept, but the author could’ve done better things with it. I haven’t decided if i’m going to read the rest of the series or not. Seems pointless. Also, another note- America (the main character) really bothers me. If you ask me, she’s a bit of a “pick-me-girl”, if you will, among other things. She was quite annoying throughout the whole book."
