More of the same thing as the previous series.  It's a good,  mindless,  drama filled book. Escapism at its finest. 

Es war überhaupt nicht wie die Shatter Me Reihe. Also ja, schon irgendwie, aber irgendwo auch nicht. Es war einfach zu lang gezogen und das Verhälnis zwischen Dingen, die passiert sind und Seitenanzahl passt nicht so richtig. Ich fand es erst so richtig spannend, als sie da unten im Tunnel waren und man si ein bisschen Tension zwischen ihnen gemerkt hat.

Es war nicht komplett ass und ich fand das Ende auch sehr gut und hab mich fast vergessen, als am Ende so ein Cliffhanger war, aber es kommt nicht an die Shatter Me Reihe ran.

 I didn't like how there were curse words in some of the chapters that I read and this book was supposed to aim at young adult readers and using the words fuck and shit and I didn't like the writing for this book and why did the main male character have to constantly curse and talk about diarrhea in one of the chapters. And I just saw there is going to be book 2 is coming out in April of next year I don't think that I am going to be bother reading that book when it comes out or maybe I will think about it and are these boy characters 5 years old that they have to snack time it's like little kids talking about what kind of snack they are having and why were they so mean and saying mean things about Rosabelle.
