Dark, fast paced and action packed!
Greek mythology set in the modern world with fantastic storytelling and truly moving Greek tragedy interwoven.
Easy to read and hard to put down this book grips you from start to finish, could easily see this being made into a movie.
Fans of mythology retelling's, strong female characters, dark twists and romantic tension will love this book.

The writing style was great. This is the first book I've read by Alexandra Bracken and I definitely want to read more! The Darkest Minds has been on my tbr for a while so I'm excited to read that soon :)
The ending was quite abrupt and a bit under explained imo and that's part of the reason my I didn't give it 5 stars. I genuinely enjoyed it but it just wasn't five stars for me.
Edit: After sleeping on it I decided to give it 4 instead of 5.75. There were no real plot twists and everything that was explained I had already guessed before. The things I couldn't figure out on my own weren't explained in the end which left me confused.
