This was a pleasant surprise! I'd initially bought this for a pound - because, well, it was a pound - without knowing too much. After doing a little research, I read that there was a love triangle. And so my expectations dropped. A lot. However, I decided to give this a chance and I'm very glad that I did.
For a book which seemed romance, this wasn't that prominent. Sure, the main character has a boyfriend and she talks quite a bit about him towards the beginning, but for the second half, when she sort of wakes up to reality, finally she quietens down. There wasn't even that much romance in this, which pleased me because I could not stand another annoying love triangle (although I suspect this will come in the next book).
Putting all that aside, this was very enjoyable! The entire concept of the world was intriguing and I was glad when immediately the mc is thrown into the deep end and her whole life is turned upside down. Reading her internal monologue as she questions all she's been taught throughout her childhood was fascinating and I found her character quite admirable at times; standing up to the immoral social constructs of the dystopian society.
I look forward to reading [b:Perfect|35906309|Perfect|Cecelia Ahern|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1501772905s/35906309.jpg|57431042], the conclusion to the Flawed duology, soon.
