emotional tense slow-paced

One of the most gripping novels I've ever read. I couldn't put it down!

Interesting viewpoint but it seemed very short lived which I assume is the point

I really liked this book. It was exciting, and captivating, and overall a great book. The story is unlike anything I have ever read so far (not to claim there isn't others like it, i just haven't read them) so it was great to read something different to me and really enjoy it. I loved the relationships in the book, and found myself having a lot of the same feelings as many characters. I was conflicted when they were, stressed when they were, and happy/scared/worried/etc when they were to. It was well written, and I thought it was fantastic.

The concept is interesting, the book was entertaining- just about 300 pages too long. Some parts were very repetitive so I flipped through them. Side note- I wish I had a dollar for every time one of Stephanie Meyers characters "whispered" or "murmured" a line of dialogue in this book.

5/5 slow burn
5/5 plot
5/5 writing 

My absolute favorite book in high school. I had the hardback and absolutely destroyed the book due to the amount of times I read and reread it. Not sure if I would enjoy it now, but if I do end up reading it I will update this review.
