This book had me on the edge of my seat - wondering if getting up to load my dishwasher would be more interesting.
I was very disappointed with this book considering a friend of mine had raved about how good to was and had recommend I read it as soon as possible.
I didn't connect to any of the characters and none of the secondary characters where fleshed out making them feel like fillers. The dialogue felt like it was written be a middle-age man which is disturbing in a female POV YA story. Also SHOW DON'T TELL!!!! This book felt like it was an early draft that still needed reworking.
I had a vague inclination to know how the trilogy would end but it was quickly overcome.

The best part of the book - I was left screaming for more. I would definitely recommend this book.
While the foreshadowing was for me personally a little too heavy handed I felt the pace with which out main character pieced things together was very believable.
I also felt the description of the landscape very vivid and easy to imagine.
That the book wasn't a love story disguised as a dystopian apocalyptic adventure was my favorite part!!
