I liked this book. Not sure about the reasons for the world being a dystopia, I think that could have been far more interesting and creative especially when the characters and other parts are so unique. I'm still excited to read the next books in the series and see what else is in store for Juliette.

I really enjoyed this book - almost gave it 5 stars. I enjoyed the fact that the book and pages were more chaotic at the beginning and eased off throughout the book to reflect her mental state. The depictions of her loneliness and desperation to be touched were heartbreaking. I cannot wait to read the rest of this series.
