Sei que é infanto-juvenil, mas existem aqui temas muito pesados. Adorei tudo, menos o final. Detesto final abertos. E não me pareceu que o Jonas e o Gabriel tivessem tido sorte

honestly loved the plot like ik a lot of people didnt like this book when i read it in middle school but the plot was interesitng and easy to understand + who doesnt love a good dystopia

and the ending left me with a lot of theories but i never continued reading the rest of the books (im pretty sure the author continued the stort but tbh i love how it ended)

read this back in high school

This was my first dystopian book. I thoroughly enjoyed the story, it really shows us that even with the "perfect" society, one does not want to be restrained and be controlled by rules. I love the ending, super powerful because it lets us decide its meaning.

Highly recommended!
