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.

So far this series is really good! I think this first book is a lot of world building and character introductions. The middle of the book seems like the beginning. I am very glad there are more books to expand on Juliette and Warner. I so far don't trust Adam and love Kenji and Juliette. I think the world building works very well it just means the into is super slow.

This book was my way out of reading slump! I love every inch of this book and I can’t understand how I was able to stay away from it for so long. The characters are perfect. I've never felt this way about a book in a long time✨
Also
Hoping for more Juliette+Warner in the second book 🫶🏻
