I can’t wait for the next book! Read more Adam is the perfect romantic lead and I really liked the relationship he and Juliette have. Juliette’s fear, mistrust and mental anguish are perfectly balanced with her need to be loved and understood. I loved the mix of dystopia, romance and paranormal elements, and I loved the characters. Mafi gives Juliette a very distinct voice which makes the novel even more captivating. The prose is lyrical and hypnotizing, though the similes and metaphors tend to run wild at times.

She will fight back, and in the process she will learn her powers are much stronger than she realized.I tore through this book in a day. They want to use her as a weapon to aid them in ridding the world of anyone who fights back against them.

Hoping the rest of the series is as good and does not go downhill like the Hunger Games though. The ending reminded a lot of The Hunger Games. I did not have a hard time understanding the world. I actually liked that it was not complicated or something that half the book described. I think the narrator for the audiobook brought the character and emotion to life, and I enjoyed her.I know others had issues with the lack of the development within the world. I ended up loving it on audio, and recommend giving it a try if you have been wanting to read this.

I started reading this in physical copy and then switched to audio to help get through the middle. The author did that very often.I ran through the first few chapters, then did not feel like picking it back up as it slowed down. I also do not love when words are reported over and over again in a sentence. I did not think it brought anything to the story, and I could have gone without these parts. I know Juliette is carrying a journal, but the story is not written from the POV of the journal. This did not come off as a journal, so to me it did not make sense.

However I was not a huge fan of the writing style or the scratch off sections. I was wrong! I am not normally a fan of Science Fiction and Dystopian, but I ended up enjoying the plot on this one.I was intrigued with the story right away, especially with Juliette being imprisoned. I had been putting starting this series as I thought I was going to hate it.
