4.0

I remember reading the entire trilogy in middle school, so I must have liked it enough to finish it. It was a decent YA book for me, though I've heard other, more prolific YA readers, say it's basic or bad. It does have your love triangle and intrusive dystopia government tropes, but I don't see the comparisons people make of it to Hunger Games because it has very little action plot and a lot of emotional plot. It does have a virus arc later on in the series though, so if COVID has you squicked then you might not want to pick up the sequels.
