Thank you so much to NetGalley and PENGUIN GROUP Penguin Young Readers Group for allowing me an ARC!
3.5/5
“The ocean could sneak up on a person there, surging unexpectedly through blowholes in the pocked surface. You had to listen. You had to be always on guard.”
I have to admit, this has to be my least favorite read so far. I was very excited to read more new dystopian. I did like the LGBT romance and how the dystopian took inspiration from the 1940s era were women were meant to be seen and not heard. The only reason why I felt disappointed was because I had read a book similar to this one, and I was hoping for there to be a more broader area in this genre. Even though I say this having read books like Hunger Games and Divergent, as well as The Maze Runner.
