I really tried to like this book. I really do. I liked to see America and Maxon grown up together and having 4 amazing children. It was interesting to also see Marlee and Lucy and Aspen and May. I love how they managed to improve society. I love a lot about this but one huge problem made me rate this 3 stars: main character. I can't explain how annoying she is. That is it. You have to read it yourself to understand what I mean because I can't explain it all in this little review.

 Eadlyn, the main character was kind of annoying and she barely had any character development.
(Spoiler for next book the Crown) Eadlyn ends up someone in the sequel and we barely see them speak in this book. So most of the conversations and dates with most of the other men in this book felt pointless because they didn't change her character or the plot, nor did she end up with them.
