It physically pained me to finish this book. This was not what I expected. This is the book which shows the desolate, cold and bleak part of life. Thats the vibe I got. And I am not a fan of this vibe. This book doesn't have warmth. And I read books for it to give me warmth.
I tried to like this book, really trust me. I really tried but I couldn't stand it anymore so I had to skim through most of it, reading only the important part. Seriously if, there wasn't so much repetition, then this wouldn't have been so boring and it would be pretty short book. This book is filled with unnecessary poetic description of simple things. Now, I understand the author is trying to write in a poetic way, and she did it but she overdosed a little. She could have just said she flustered instead she goes ahead and says that she is dripping red painting on the floor. And there's many more like this.
This is completely subjective. You might like this book but I think you should know what you are getting yourself into before diving deep into it and getting disappointed -
- If you think you will get to see Warnette, then you are completely wrong. This book will give you Adam and not Warner.

Tenía mucho hype por esta saga, así que me leí el libro en apenas dos días.
El ritmo es muy bueno, en ningún momento se hace pesado ni tedioso, ni tienes que esperar 400 páginas a que suceda algo interesante (cofACOTARcofFBAAcof). El world building no es nada del otro mundo (JA!), una distopía en una Tierra destrozada por la humanidad en general y el cambio climático en particular (¿de ahí el título?, no me quedó claro a qué se refiere), con un régimen, una rebelión, una población dividida en sectores y todo muy militarizado.
No nos da tiempo a aprender mucho sobre varios personajes, pero me gustó bastante el desarrollo de la protagonista, Juliette, cuyos actos suelen ser muy coherentes con su edad y experiencias personales (y estoy deseando de seguir leyendo sobre Warner). Me gustó el detalle de tachar las frases que representan los pensamientos intrusivos de Juliette, pues estamos leyendo desde su perspectiva.
Algo negativo de la trama sería que me parece demasiado corto el intervalo en el que el mundo pasa de ser tal y como lo conocemos a estar totalmente devastado y controlado por el Restablecimiento (creo que no llega ni a los diez años).
En general, muy entretenido y te deja con muchas ganas de seguir leyendo.
