4.5

It's definitely a dystopian book I recommend. It really captured me when it's interesting theme of kids going to this game where they have to kill each other in order to survive. It questions morality which is something that the world today is dealing with. The book captures what it was advertised as, a tense, challenging and dark book. Overall, a book I HIGHLY recommend
