I really wanted to give this book five stars but the thing is it’s short the scenes are a bit fast at times and not as detailed as I would have preferred but nonetheless I enjoyed every part of this book the story was very much to my liking

An alright and entertaining play on dystopian era YA novels meets the Bachelor. Wasn't the best thing I've ever read but I want to finish the series to know what happens, so that's something! The characters are interesting and I like seeing the development.

Well… this series is a rollercoaster. Read the whole 3 book series in 3 days though—but—I don’t think I liked it…? I mean, yes it was interesting, but my obsession was just me aching for more romance; like, I just wanted them to have eye contact! It’s such a slow burn, but the satisfaction at the end of the series is real. The thing is, I didn’t continue on to the 5th book—read the 4th—but then realized

Maxon and Americas daughter doesn’t end up with who I wanted her too so I stopped at around page 100 of the 5th book

Definitely recommend the first 3, just not the last 2. Have fun being tortured!
