I hate to say this, but despite the flaws, there were a couple moments where I actually enjoyed this book. Will read more of her things, once she improves her writing.

A única coisa que eu realmente tenho a dizer é que não esperava isto. Honestamente as minhas expectativas eram muito baixas mas eu simplesmente amei.

O Maxon....

Literalmente devorei o livro e estou ansiosa para começar logo o próximo.

A princípio este livro era um quatro mas devido a experiências de outros livros acabei por dar três.
Este livro é incrível para quem está a começar a ler, é um livro descontraído, que apesar de não ser da nossa realidade, podemos nos identificar com algumas coisas. É uma história bonita e fácil de ler.
Ainda não li os outros livros e ainda não sei se vou ler, já tenho à muito tempo mas não sei se vou ler, a história em si é muito boa mas ao passar dos livros acho que se repetindo muita coisa.
Enfim, recomendo ser uma das vossas primeiras leituras para talvez não ficarem desiludidos depois.
Gostei muito deste livro, apesar de não um dos meus favoritos!

This book gives be the bachelor vibes. Except I feel like the bachelor is more interesting.😂😂😂 There was not enough drama in this book and things fell flat. I will continue to read the series cause I'm big hoping it gets better.

This felt YA, and along the lines of The Hunger Games with some royalty mixed in. I’m glad that there are more stories in this series as I’ve grown fond of the characters and how they’re developing. I want to know what Celeste said to Anna, I want to know Marlee’s secret and of course I’m rooting for Maxon, see ya Aspen!

This was awful and I can’t believe I finished it. America Singer (what an awful name) is a great value Katniss without being a badass. She’s extremely “not like other girls.” The book is just crammed full of every basic romance trope the author could think of, and not one is used well. Also, the writing is flat-out bad. There was nothing redeemable about this book. 

If you are thinking about listening to it instead of reading, don’t. The narrator is also bad.
