ubalstecha 's review for:

Gifted & Talented by Olivie Blake
3.5
challenging dark slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

First off, I liked this book. I appreciated what the author was doing with their story -elling, but I found it hard to read. This may have been better cause none of the main characters were likable. They were, for the most part, spoiled, rich, and entitled.  Even our narrator was abrasive and hard to like, although, given what happened to her prior to the beginning of this book, that was understandable. 

Still, if you like when science fiction is more speculative fiction or are a fan of succession, this is for you.
