Not what I was expecting. The world is interesting and makes a bit of social commentary. More background on Violet would be nice. Her skills seem to come out of nowhere. It's very coincidental.

Holy wow! This book was like crack. Once I started, I devoured it and kept wanting more and more. I love the mystery of everything. Like Violet, you’re not quite sure who is telling the truth and who is really a friend or not. I loved trying to uncover all the secrets with Violet.

There is a whole slew of men in this book and they’re all equally delicious. The four main ones are Alex, Rafe, Nolan, and Jordan. Though not all of them are love interests (some are friends-ish) honestly at this point, Nolan is my favorite. I love his playfulness and the fact that he constantly acts like a “big brother”. Obviously they’re all hot hunks that you want to like for different reasons.

Our MC, Violet is one heck of a gal. She is so fierce, strong, and takes no crap which I adore. She makes some very smart moves throughout this book and I love when an MC is intelligent in her decision making. I cannot wait to see where her story goes in book 2.

With Violet and all our main characters, I’ll be very curious to see who she stays connected with and who we may find on the betrayal side. That includes our love interests as well.

There’s also fantastic world-building. I really enjoyed how the authors re-structured the world and the rules. There’s also a huge element of mystery and thrill throughout the book which makes it even more enjoyable. Absolutely loved and cannot wait to keep reading more in the series!

Can't for the life of me recall the first half of the book but I more than enjoyed the whole thing anyway.
