adventurous challenging mysterious tense medium-paced

This was the sci-fi kick I needed. This book was crazy and definitely kept my attention. The humans were crazy and so were the aliens. I love a well written immersive sci-fi dystopian story. If you have ever watched The 100 I think you should give this book a read. There are 2 more books in the series and I can’t wait to read them.

I want to hate this book cause the class was kinda boring, but in all honesty the book was okay. Not great; honestly kinda weird, and not much to learn from it (in my opinion), but it was an okay story

What a wild ride! Very interesting premise and world. I’m looking forward to reading the second book!

The first half of the book is quite slow but once you get to part 3…. You won’t be able to put it down
