Anyone read this? I just got it from the library, but still on the fence on whether I should pick it up or not.

I seem to be seeing that too. I struggle with dystopian/futuristic stuff a lot so I'm worried.

Darcy (sunnytat462) | 2770 comments I read it. I wasn't too sure what to think of this book when I picked it, but I like the author's other series that I wanted to give this one a try. It ended up being better than I expected.

There were aspects of the book that were standard, a monarchy that is overbearing, a group of rebels that want more, and a strict class system. These apsects made the book familiar when reading, but it is the characters that will keep you reading. A couple of them surprised me and weren't what I first thought they were, but then as I thought about them it made perfect sense.

For me a large part of the appeal of the book was Charlie. She had so much to hide and so much to protect. The relationship with her sister showed both parts.

I was ready for and dreading a love triangle, but am happy to say that it didn't go that way.

With the ending I wonder where things will go in this series. I almost expected the fight for right to go on longer.

Whitney (whitneychakara) | 1272 comments I forgot she had a sister hm and when I read the sample for book two he wasn't mentioned. I guess she just disappeared ?

Whitney (whitneychakara) | 1272 comments I liked the first book but never got around to the second. I gave it to much time and then became confused on who was who and what was what.
