Scythe by Neal Shusterman

adventurous challenging dark mysterious sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes

4.5

They just aren’t making books like this anymore. Written in the golden age of dystopian YA, this book was just insanely captivating, original and fresh in the sludge that is recent releases. Precise and consistent world building that was easy to follow along. Complex multi layered, fully fleshed out characters. And just enough twists and turns with steady pacing for the plot. I loved this book and wish I would have read it sooner. Cannot wait to finish the series.
