I had started reading the series that spun off from this book before coming back to read it. I've found that I really like Kent's take on how to write a good dystopian future romance, and I think some of it is that she focuses closely on the people affected and their very small world. While you do learn more about what happened to the world, it's a much smaller, more human focus which makes it easier to feel for the characters. I was interested to see the origins of some of the people from the later books, which makes me more excited to continue the spin off series.
