The End...

Or is it?

Just kidding! There are still two more books in the series and they are both amazing. I would totally reccomend checking them out too.

On a scale of 1-5, I would rate this book about an 4.5. The story conveys a nice mix of sci-fi as well as slice of life, making for a great adventure novel. This isn’t just your typical “post-apocalyptic society” or “new girl trying to fit in” story, it is the captivatingly fascinating story of a girl who’s uniqueness can get her killed. It has a great deal of character development for all the characters spread throughout the story and it knows how to play with your feelings in just the right ways. The only things that kept me from giving it a full 5 stars was that the romance seemed a little unnecessary at points. If you like sci-fi, adventure, or even the occasional romance, then this book is definitely the book for you.
