This might be where I DNF. It is just constant running from camp to camp, with barely any explanation in between. Why have a whole conversation about her being vegan before explaining what the rebels are fighting for? Explaining nuclear power before telling us what evils Lillian has been up to? What is a Witch in this world?

The powerful women are evil or weak-willed. The men run the resistance and the good groups. The men are the ones we can trust. Except the one man willing to exploit a 14 year old for sex and he'll probably still kill her brother, then her. Not a single kind, strong lady in this whole book so far.

Lily can only go one scene without it being focused on a man.

Sexually assaulted 10 minutes into a party, poisoned, betrayed, and seizure. That was a lot. At least she ditched Tristan. Fuck that loser.
