I mean, what else does there have to be said about a classic?? I read this so long ago and wanted to revisit after seeing the prequel movie. It was fun to revisit with more attention and a different perspective. Excited to journey through the series again!

Rereading this book reminded me how groundbreaking this series was when it came out. The pioneer of dystopian YA novels! I cried multiple times.
